Peony 'Pink Double'

Pink Double is a pink, double-flowered form of Paeonia lactiflora with compact green foliage. The [Groff's Plant Farm listing](https://groffsplantfarm.com/item/2726/Peony-lactiflora-Pink-Double) describes blooms ranging from semi-double to double and gives a mature size of 2.5–3 feet in height and width. ## Garden use Use this peony in a sunny border, where the large pink blooms make a full display above the foliage. Its large flowers create a full display above the compact foliage, with flowering through spring and summer. ## Growing conditions Full sun gives the best flower production. Mulch around the plant to keep the roots cool and moist, and use fertile, well-drained soil; the [RHS herbaceous-peony guide](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/peony/herbaceous) explains why peonies should be left undisturbed once established. ## Maintenance Remove faded flowers after the display and cut the foliage back in autumn after it dies down.
