Notes
'Radiant Pinkness' peony (Paeonia 'Radiant Pinkness') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Swenson Gardens bred this peony, and its fragrant pink semi-double flowers draw butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The upright plants need no support.
Pairs well with Blonde Ambition blue grama, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Meadowsweet.
