Notes
'Victory Chateau Thierry' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Victory Chateau Thierry') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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 bears large, double, fragrant blooms of bright clear pink in mid to late spring. The plant stays short and upright, and its strong stems hold the heavy flowers well. Archie M. Brand bred it.
Pairs well with Iris, Cheerfulness daffodil, Sedge, and Tiger lily.
