Notes
'Fairy Belle' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Fairy Belle') 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. Dr. John H. Neeley bred it. Its flowers last well in a vase, so you can cut a few for indoors.
Pairs well with Little bluestem, Garlic chives, Quick Fire panicle hydrangea, and Siberian squill.
