Notes

'Princesse Clotilde' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Princesse Clotilde') 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. The blooms are white with blush shading, so they look soft next to bolder flowers. Cut the stems for bouquets to enjoy the flowers indoors.

Pairs well with Columbine, Delphinium, and Sedge.
