Notes
'Fabulous World' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Fabulous World') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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. Late blooming semi-double flowers open dark pink and fade to a light powder pink. The fragrant blooms face upward and measure about 6 inches across. Plants stand upright and usually need no support.
Pairs well with Royal fern, Spanish bluebell, and Black Parrot tulip.
