Notes

'Walter Lindgren' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Walter Lindgren') 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. The flowers are double and light pink with a lilac tone. They look much like those of the peony Therese.

Pairs well with Halcyon hosta, Nepeta, and Shrub rose.
