Notes
'Pisces' peony (Paeonia 'Pisces') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Single to semi-double flowers open lilac-pink and coral-pink with red flares in early to late spring, then age to light pink. Nate Bremer bred it.
Pairs well with Spiderwort, Big bluestem, and Nelly Moser clematis.
