Notes

'Fantasia' peony (Paeonia 'Fantasia') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Fragrant, light pink flowers have crinkled petals, and bees and butterflies visit them. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Liberty hosta, Bobo hydrangea, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
