Notes
'Belgravia' peony (Paeonia 'Belgravia') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 cherry-red blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The plant is toxic to dogs and cats, so plant it with care.
Pairs well with August Moon hosta, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Charles Joly lilac.
