Notes

'Pinkaboo' peony (Paeonia 'Pinkaboo') 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. The small, single flowers are light pink with a near white base and a sweet fragrance. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Magnus coneflower, Golden Tiara hosta, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
