Notes
'Rose Elegance' peony (Paeonia 'Rose Elegance') 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. The fragrant blooms attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. William S.
