Notes

'Amazing Queen' peony (Paeonia 'Amazing Queen') 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. Double salmon pink flowers carry a subtle fragrance, and the upright plants need no support. Swenson Gardens bred it. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.

Pairs well with Stained Glass hosta, Annabelle hydrangea, Cheerfulness daffodil, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
