Notes
'Snow Rim' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Snow Rim') 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 single to semi-double blooms are pure paper white with yellow stamens and carmine red stigmas. It blooms in the middle of the peony season and is a profuse bloomer. Darwin M. Andrews bred it.
Pairs well with Hairy aster, Sedge, and Black Hero tulip.
