Notes
'Felicitas' peony (Paeonia 'Felicitas') 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 pink flowers are semi-double and have frilled guard petals. Stems stand upright, so you do not need to stake it. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Minuteman hosta, Prairie dropseed, and Picture tulip.
