Notes

'Agnes Ffytch' peony (Paeonia 'Agnes Ffytch') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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. Each stem holds one fragrant, light pink flower that faces out, and the stems may need support. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms.

Pairs well with White Feather hosta, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and African Queen lily.
