Notes

'Amazing Princess' peony (Paeonia 'Amazing Princess') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Fragrant, blush-pink, semi-double flowers open in midseason and attract bees and butterflies. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. The upright stems need no support, and Swenson Gardens bred it.

Pairs well with Liberty hosta, Blanket flower, and Incrediball Storm Proof smooth hydrangea.
