Notes
'Roseolens' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Roseolens') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. The fragrant double flowers open lilac with purple undertones and age to white. Mathieu bred it, and the blooms make fine cut flowers.
Pairs well with Moonshine yarrow, Blue fescue, Cinnamon fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
