Notes
'Monsieur Charles Lévèque' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Monsieur Charles Lévèque') 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. Plant it where it can stay for years, since peonies often resent being moved.
Pairs well with Rainforest Sunrise hosta, Incrediball hydrangea, Stargazer lily, and Little bluestem.
