Notes

'White Prince' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'White Prince') 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 large white blooms have a cream center and open rather flat in late spring. They are fragrant and appear freely on medium tall plants with good foliage.

Pairs well with Gooseneck loosestrife, Maiden pink, Black Hero tulip, and Sedge.
