Notes
'Winthrop H. Thurlow' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Winthrop H. Thurlow') 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. It is a Japanese type peony with white blooms. Roger G. Coggeshall bred it, and he named it to honor a man who spent many years growing peonies.
