Notes
'Puntratants' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Puntratants') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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. Midseason pink single flowers face upward and have a fragrance. Dense clusters of flowers open at the same time. The spreading plants reach about 37 inches, so give them support.
Pairs well with Perennial candytuft, Blazing star, and Sedge.
