Notes

'Bella di Monza' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Bella di Monza') 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. The woody stems stay through winter, so you only need to trim out dead wood. Cut the blooms for bouquets and enjoy them indoors.

Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Prairie dropseed, and Hinoki cypress.
