Notes

'Cathedral Supreme' peony (Paeonia 'Cathedral Supreme') 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, salmon-pink flowers have yellow centers and attract bees and butterflies. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. William Henry Krekler bred it.

Pairs well with Halcyon hosta, Phantom panicle hydrangea, Nodding onion, and Blue grama.
