Notes

'Bells Across the Meadows' peony (Paeonia 'Bells Across the Meadows') 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. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The double apricot-cream flowers have gold highlights and pink flares. Plants stand upright and need no support.
