Notes
'Victor’s Crown' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Victor’s Crown') 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. The large, double flowers are medium pink. Stiff stems hold the blooms upright, which makes them handy for cutting.
Pairs well with Autumn Frost hosta, Incrediball hydrangea, Cinnamon fern, and Standing Ovation little bluestem.
