Notes

'Dipple Gowt' peony (Paeonia 'Dipple Gowt') 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. Light yellow flowers have a greenish lustre and open two per stem on an upright bush. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Fragrant Bouquet hosta, Switchgrass, and Black Hero tulip.
