Notes
'Titanic' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Titanic') 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. Its double, dark pink flowers open in late spring. The tall, strong stems make it a good cut flower. Alonzo B. Franklin bred it.
Pairs well with Aromatic aster, Matrona october daphne, and Sedge.
