Notes

'Little Aristocrat' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Little Aristocrat') 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 a silvery reverse. Sarah A. Pleas bred it, but no year is given here.

Pairs well with Pale purple coneflower, Miss Kim lilac, and Garlic chives.
