Notes
'Petite Princess' peony (Paeonia 'Petite Princess') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and rock 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. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. The fragrant, rose-pink flowers have lavender shading and bloom one per stem on sturdy 15 to 16 inch plants. Klehm's Song Sparrow Perennial Farm introduced it in 2003.
Pairs well with Krossa Regal hosta, Indian grass, and Little Beauty tulip.
