Notes
'Lille' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Lille') 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. Its cherry blooms add color to the border and look good in a vase. Millet & Son bred it. Give it space to grow in the garden.
Pairs well with Charles Joly lilac, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
