Notes
'Tanya' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Tanya') 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 dark red double blooms have a few stamens mixed in. R.H. Jones bred it, and it remains a popular choice.
Pairs well with Francee hosta, Royal fern, and Pink Impression tulip.
