Notes

'Treasure Cup' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Treasure Cup') 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 a tall growth habit, so place it toward the back of a border where its height suits the bed. The flowers are pink, and they look lovely in a vase. Kelway bred it.

Pairs well with Stained Glass hosta, Japanese spirea, and Switchgrass.
