Notes
'Pranciškaus Daugiažiedis' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Pranciškaus Daugiažiedis') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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. Single, vivid purplish-pink flowers open in late spring and are fragrant. Plants reach about 120 cm (47.25") and spread, so give them mechanical support.
Pairs well with Swamp milkweed, Japanese spirea, Stargazer lily, and Garlic chives.
