Notes
'Miriam Napier Rohe' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Miriam Napier Rohe') 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 full double blooms are pure white and open in mid to late spring. Strong, upright stems stand about thirty inches high, and the foliage reaches down to the ground. Hans Peter Sass bred it.
Pairs well with Shrub rose, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Cinnamon fern.
