Notes

'Fairyland' peony (Paeonia 'Fairyland') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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 fragrant flowers attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Edward Auten, Jr bred it.

Pairs well with Clustered bellflower, Little bluestem, and Nodding onion.
