Notes

'Madame Lebon' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Madame Lebon') 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. Tall stems carry fragrant, double pink flowers. Jacques Calot bred it, so you can enjoy a classic form in your garden.

Pairs well with Prairie dropseed, Maiden pink, and Black Hero tulip.
