Description
Paeonia lactiflora Bowl of Beauty opens large cerise-pink cups around a mass of narrow, creamy-white petaloids in late spring and early summer. Its bushy, clump-forming habit suits flower borders and cottage gardens, while the blooms can be cut for arrangements.
Plant it in full sun or partial shade in deep, fertile soil that stays moist but drains well. Remove faded flowers, then cut the stems back after the foliage dies in fall. Contact with this plant may irritate the skin of dogs and cats.
