Notes
'Villa Romana Del Tellaro' peony (Paeonia 'Villa Romana Del Tellaro') is a perennial for borders, cut flower gardens, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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 flowers open light pink and fade to creamy blush with pale yellow tones. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Its spreading habit benefits from support.
Pairs well with Stella de Oro daylily, Switchgrass, and Abiqua Drinking Gourd hosta.
