Notes
'Madame Chaumy' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Madame Chaumy') 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. It bears double pink flowers with a fragrant scent. Jacques Calot bred it, and the blooms make a fine cut flower for a vase.
Pairs well with Hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
