Notes

'Lovelind Mattar' peony (Paeonia 'Lovelind Mattar') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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 fragrant pink flowers have a yellow center and attract bees and butterflies. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Don Hollingsworth bred it.

Pairs well with Krossa Regal hosta, Blazing star, Blue grama, and Cheerfulness daffodil.
