Notes

'Roselette’s Child' peony (Paeonia 'Roselette’s Child') 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. The fragrant flowers have a peach ice cream color, and bees and butterflies visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Prof. Arthur Percy Saunders bred it.

Pairs well with Wide Brim hosta, Goldsturm black-eyed Susan, and Sedge.
