Notes

'Sally' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Sally') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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 tall, vigorous plant bears double, high center bomb type blooms in clear pink. It flowers late in spring. Styer bred it in 1968.

Pairs well with Sedge, Orange lily, and Shrub rose.
