Notes

'Maly Semyachik' peony (Paeonia 'Maly Semyachik') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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 fragrant flowers open light pink with mauve veining and age to buff, and each stem needs support. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.

Pairs well with Sum and Substance hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Stargazer lily.
