Notes

'Rosy Loft' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Rosy Loft') 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 fragrant, dark pink flowers sit above a paler pink and face upward. Plants reach about 31 inches tall with an upright habit, so they need no support.

Pairs well with Rainbow's End hosta, David garden phlox, Japanese spirea, and Queen of Night tulip.
