Notes
'Cream Delight' peony (Paeonia 'Cream Delight') 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. Cream single blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees, and David Reath bred it. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.
Pairs well with Prairie dropseed, Spiked speedwell, and Royal Standard hosta.
