Notes
'Mystic Pink' peony (Paeonia 'Mystic Pink') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Large single pink blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Nate Bremer bred it, and plants reach about 36 inches tall. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Guacamole hosta, Prairie dropseed, and Pink Impression tulip.
