Notes
'Limosel' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Limosel') 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. The double blooms are lilac-pink with white edges and have a sweet fragrance. Kelway bred it, so you can cut the flowers for bouquets.
Pairs well with Aromatic aster, Switchgrass, and Miss Kim lilac.
