Notes

'Rose Shaylor' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Rose Shaylor') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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. The double flowers are large, flat, and pale pink with rose tints and crimson edges. They bloom in mid to late spring and have a mild fragrance. Stiff stems hold the blooms upright.
