Notes
'Roger’s Pink' peony (Paeonia 'Roger’s Pink') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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. Fragrant coral pink blooms open in midseason and reach 5 to 5 1/2 inches wide on upright plants that grow 24 inches tall. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Swenson Gardens bred it.
Pairs well with Krossa Regal hosta, Blanket flower, Cheerfulness daffodil, and Sedge.
