Notes

'Sibelius' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Sibelius') 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 light pink blooms are rose type, large, and broad. The clean buds open well, and the plant blooms freely. Reno Rosefield bred it.

Pairs well with Tickseed, Blonde Ambition blue grama, Cheerfulness daffodil, and Incrediball Storm Proof smooth hydrangea.
