Notes
'Spotless' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Spotless') 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. Its pure white double rose blooms smell sweet and open from mid to late spring into early summer. Light green foliage grows on stems 32 to 36 inches high. Myron D. Bigger bred it in 1963.
Pairs well with Sedge, Tickseed, and Shrub rose.
