Notes
'Aurelian’s Glory' peony (Paeonia 'Aurelian’s Glory') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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 ruffled red double flowers are fragrant and draw bees and butterflies. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. The upright stems need no support.
Pairs well with Big Daddy hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Black Parrot tulip.
