Notes
'Vasaras Atspulgs' peony (Paeonia 'Vasaras Atspulgs') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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 semi-double flowers open salmon pink, fade to creamy white, and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The strong, upright stems stand without support.
Pairs well with Blue Mouse Ears hosta, Moonshine yarrow, and Western sword fern.
