Notes

'Tinkerbelle' peony (Paeonia 'Tinkerbelle') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, rock gardens, and cut flowers. 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 lavender pink single flowers have short golden stamens and a musty fragrance. The stems are strong, and the clean blue-green foliage looks good all season. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.

Pairs well with Krossa Regal hosta, Magnus coneflower, Switchgrass, and Stargazer lily.
