Notes
'Margaret Vierheller' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Margaret Vierheller') 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. Its large, double blooms are a uniform shade of salmon-pink. The tall plant has strong stems, so the flowers hold up well. Wettengel bred it.
Pairs well with Culver’s root, Cheerfulness daffodil, Sedge, and Invincibelle Ruby smooth hydrangea.
