Notes

'Bridal Gown' peony (Paeonia 'Bridal Gown') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. The fragrant white blooms have cream undertones and no pollen, and the plants stay compact with strong stems. Carl G. Klehm bred it in 1981. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Empress Wu hosta, Charles Joly lilac, Sedge, and Black Hero tulip.
