Notes
'Amazing Radiance' peony (Paeonia 'Amazing Radiance') 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. Its fragrant, pale-yellow flowers open early, and bees and butterflies visit them. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Swenson Gardens bred it, and the upright plants need no support.
Pairs well with Stained Glass hosta, Annabelle hydrangea, and Prairie dropseed.
