Notes
'Bridal Shower' peony (Paeonia 'Bridal Shower') 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 and average moisture. It bears fragrant, double, pure white blooms with no pollen, and bees and butterflies visit it. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Carl G. Klehm bred it in 1981.
Pairs well with Royal Standard hosta, Clustered bellflower, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
