Notes

'Dunman’s White' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Dunman’s White') 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 double white blooms are immense. Strong stems help hold the heavy flowers upright.

Pairs well with Fire Island hosta, Western sword fern, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Black chokeberry.
