Notes

'Alice In Wonderland' peony (Paeonia 'Alice In Wonderland') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. Light yellow flowers with brown flares open in early to late spring. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The nearly double blooms have heavy petals, and strong stems hold them up.

Pairs well with Elegans hosta, Sweet William, and Stargazer lily.
