Notes

'Roger’s Pillow' peony (Paeonia 'Roger’s Pillow') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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. Semi-double salmon-pink flowers face upward and carry a subtle fragrance. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The upright plants reach about 26 inches and need no support.

Pairs well with Blue Mouse Ears hosta, Sensation lilac, Switchgrass, and Stargazer lily.
