Notes

'Symphony in Rose' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Symphony in Rose') 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 Japanese type flowers are rose pink edged in yellow. Staminodes tipped in cream sit at the center of each bloom. Alonzo B. Franklin bred it.

Pairs well with First Frost hosta, David garden phlox, and Sensitive fern.
