Notes
'Divine Showstopper' peony (Paeonia 'Divine Showstopper') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. The blush pastel flowers are highly fragrant and bloom at midseason. Plants stand upright and reach about 30 inches, so they need no support.
Pairs well with Magnus coneflower, Prairie dropseed, Patriot hosta, and Nodding onion.
