Notes

'Walter Brewster' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Walter Brewster') 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. Its semi-double flowers open light pink or blush. The plants grow tall, so you may want to place them toward the middle or back of the bed.

Pairs well with Nepeta, Halcyon hosta, and Spanish bluebell.
