Notes

'Miss Latvija' peony (Paeonia 'Miss Latvija') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The fragrant, double pink flowers open slowly into a tulip-like shape. It reaches about 31 inches tall and needs no support.

Pairs well with Blue Mouse Ears hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Carlton daffodil.
