Notes
'Bewitching' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Bewitching') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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. The flowers are double and pink, which makes them a good pick for bouquets and borders. Kelway bred this cultivar, and it is not yet in general commerce.
Pairs well with Bobo hydrangea, Queen of Night tulip, American Gold Rush black-eyed Susan, and Garlic chives.
