Notes
'Bridal Elegance' peony (Paeonia 'Bridal Elegance') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 cream blooms have pink shading, open in early to late spring, and attract butterflies. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Derek Irvine bred it.
Pairs well with First Frost hosta, Star Gazer lily, Mock orange, and Grape hyacinth.
