Notes

'Roselette' peony (Paeonia 'Roselette') 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 and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant rose-pink blooms have darker streaks and flecks. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Lady's mantle, Foxglove, and Globemaster allium.
