Notes
'Villa Jovis' peony (Paeonia 'Villa Jovis') 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. The fragrant, coral pink flowers are semi-double with ruffled petals, and the upright plants need no support. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Joshua Scholten bred it.
Pairs well with Stained Glass hosta, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Blue grama.
