'The Oaks' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'The Oaks') 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. It has an upright habit and pink blooms. The upright shape looks tidy in a border, and the pink flowers add color to a bouquet.
