Notes

'Paul Fischer' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Paul Fischer') 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. The plant grows upright and bears double pink flowers. The double pink blooms also work well in a vase. John Richardson bred it.

Pairs well with Aromatic aster, Black Hero tulip, and Christmas fern.
