Notes
'Cheddar Regal' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Cheddar Regal') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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 white flowers have a pure gold center ringed by several rows of guard petals. They open in early to mid spring on strong stems. Roy G. Klehm bred it.
Pairs well with Black Hero tulip, Sensitive fern, and Smooth aster.
