Notes
'Brassy Lady' peony (Paeonia 'Brassy Lady') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. The fragrant double blooms are amber with rose edging and darker flares. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. The stems are strong, but the flowers sit barely above the foliage.
Pairs well with Blue Mouse Ears hosta, Star Gazer lily, Mock orange, and Pink Impression tulip.
