Notes

'Pink Beauty' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Pink Beauty') 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 large, double, deep pink flowers are fragrant and open from mid to late spring into early to mid summer. The tall, erect stems and good foliage make it a free bloomer. Hans Peter Sass bred it.

Pairs well with Maiden pink, Sedge, and Grape hyacinth.
