Notes

'Rose Garland' peony (Paeonia 'Rose Garland') 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. Its fragrant, rose-pink single cups have white flares streaked pink on the reverse, and bees and butterflies visit them. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Professor Arthur Percy Saunders bred it.

Pairs well with Stained Glass hosta, Prairie dropseed, and Nodding onion.
