Notes

'Paderewski' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Paderewski') 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 flowers are pink, so you can cut stems for a vase or let them color the border.

Pairs well with Pyrethrum, Bobo hydrangea, Spanish bluebell, and Foxtail barley.
