Notes
'Celebrity' peony (Paeonia 'Celebrity') 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. The light pink blooms have carmine-pink outer petals and a sweet scent. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Krossa Regal hosta, Clustered bellflower, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
