Notes
'Angelic Sugar' peony (Paeonia 'Angelic Sugar') 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. Salmon pink, semi-double flowers open in early to late spring and have a subtle fragrance. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Swenson Gardens bred this upright plant, and it needs no support.
Pairs well with Earth Angel hosta, Pale purple coneflower, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
