Notes

'Ao-fukurin' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Ao-fukurin') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. Its woody stems stay above ground through winter, so you only need to trim out dead wood in spring.

Pairs well with Elegans hosta, Paris coral bells, and Cinnamon fern.
