Notes

'Fruity Flash' peony (Paeonia 'Fruity Flash') 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. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Each upright, mounded plant grows up to 24 inches tall and bears one fragrant flower per stem with creamy pink guard petals and creamy yellow center petals.

Pairs well with Royal Standard hosta, Prairie dropseed, and Stargazer lily.
