Notes

'Princess of Monaco' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Princess of Monaco') 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. Its blooms are rose in color, so they brighten a sunny border. Cut stems bring that rose color indoors. Kelway bred it.

Pairs well with Iris, Tiger lily, and Foxtail barley.
