Notes
'Angel Cheeks' peony (Paeonia 'Angel Cheeks') 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 and average moisture. Its fragrant, seashell-pink double blooms open in spring and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Carl G. Klehm bred it.
Pairs well with Moonshine yarrow, Black Hero tulip, Phantom panicle hydrangea, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
