Notes
'Little Pink Lullaby' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Little Pink Lullaby') 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 semi-double to double pink blooms are fragrant and open in early summer. Each stem carries 3 to 4 buds, and the billowy flowers measure six inches across. William Henry Krekler bred it in 2000.
Pairs well with Dog's tooth violet, Cinnamon fern, Pink Impression tulip, and Spicebush.
