Notes
'Peachy Rose' peony (Paeonia 'Peachy Rose') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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 double flowers range from peach-pink to white, so several shades show on the plant at one time. The blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Louis Smirnow introduced it in 1974.
Pairs well with Dancing Queen hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Stargazer lily, and Polish Spirit clematis.
