Notes
'Vika' peony (Paeonia 'Vika') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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. Double pastel pink flowers are fragrant and face upward. The upright stems need no support. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Joshua Scholten bred it.
Pairs well with Liberty hosta, Blue grama, and Queen of Night tulip.
