Notes

'Madame de Bollemont' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Madame de Bollemont') 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 flowers are double and pink, so they add soft color to a bed or a vase. You can cut the pink blooms for indoor bouquets. François-Félix Crousse bred it.

Pairs well with Pearly everlasting, Royal fern, and Pink Impression tulip.
