Notes

'Milda Gintiliene' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Milda Gintiliene') 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. Deep pink double flowers open in late spring and face upward. The blooms are fragrant and measure about 7.5 inches across. Plants reach about 43 inches tall, so give them support.

Pairs well with Wild geranium, Incrediball hydrangea, Switchgrass, and Grape hyacinth.
