Notes
'Think Pink' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Think Pink') 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 fragrant, double pink blooms open in mid to late spring on plants about 28 inches tall. A young plant blooms more like a semi-double. William Henry Krekler bred it.
Pairs well with Japanese spirea, Sedge, and Grape hyacinth.
