Notes
'Amberglow' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Amberglow') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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. The double creamy white flowers are large, and fully open blooms show a glow of pink in the center. The stems are strong and stiff, so the plant stands up well. George C. Thurlow bred it.
Pairs well with Golden Tiara hosta, Black Hero tulip, and Blue grama.
