Notes
'Pink Moon' peony (Paeonia 'Pink Moon') 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. Strong, straight stems hold the soft pink semi-double flowers above dark green foliage, and secondary buds extend the blooming season. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. William S. Bockstoce bred it.
Pairs well with White Feather hosta, Blanket flower, and Standing Ovation little bluestem.
