Notes
'Arctic Moon' peony (Paeonia 'Arctic Moon') 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. Creamy white, fragrant blooms top sturdy stems that reach 26 inches, and bees and butterflies visit the flowers. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. David Reath bred it.
Pairs well with Goldsturm black-eyed Susan, White Feather hosta, and Nodding onion.
