Notes
'Laureshamensis' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Laureshamensis') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. Michael Miely introduced it in 2015. The single white flowers are fragrant, and the early foliage comes up red.
Pairs well with Dalmatian bellflower, Ostrich fern, Black Hero tulip, and Sedge.
