Notes

'Little One Patience' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Little One Patience') 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 white single blooms open in late spring to early summer and have strong stems. The center stamens give each bloom a yellow glow in strong sunlight.

Pairs well with Tiger lily, Sensitive fern, and Black Hero tulip.
