Notes

'Prolifera tricolor' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Prolifera tricolor') 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 flowers are double and pink, so they look full in a bouquet or in the bed. Nicolas Lémon bred this peony.

Pairs well with Indian grass, Phantom panicle hydrangea, and Carnation.
