Notes
'Pink Rosette' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Pink Rosette') is a perennial for borders, cut flower gardens, 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 rose-pink double flowers open in early to late spring and have petals placed in a rosette. Ben Gilbertson bred it, and it is a vigorous grower that increases fast.
Pairs well with Arizona Sun blanket flower, Japanese spirea, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Tall fescue.
