Notes

'Pink Tea Cup' peony (Paeonia 'Pink Tea Cup') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage 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. Fragrant, cupped, creamy pink flowers reach 5 inches wide and sit one to a stem on strong stems. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Golden Tiara hosta, Bobo hydrangea, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Black Parrot tulip.
