Notes

'Victorian Halo' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Victorian Halo') 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. Roy G. Klehm bred it. The fragrant pink flowers have a yellow center and open in early summer. Each stem carries three to four buds, and the stems are strong.

Pairs well with Bellwort, False Solomon's seal, Blue sage, and Sensitive fern.
