Notes
Callie's Memory peony (Paeonia Callie's Memory) 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, average moisture, and loamy soil. The fragrant, semi-double blooms are yellow cream with maroon flares and a picotee edge. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Long stems make it a good choice for cutting.
Pairs well with Stella de Oro daylily, White Feather hosta, Phantom panicle hydrangea, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
