Notes
'Thomas Holloway' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Thomas Holloway') 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 bears rose flowers that make a bold show in the garden and look lovely in a vase. Kelway bred it, so it belongs to a long line of classic garden peonies.
Pairs well with Liberty hosta, Prairie dropseed, and Nodding onion.
