Notes
'Fuchsia Glow' peony (Paeonia 'Fuchsia Glow') 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. The fragrant fuchsia flowers are single, with two rows of rounded guard petals, and bees and butterflies visit them. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Roy G. Klehm bred it in 1988.
Pairs well with Hosta, Stargazer lily, Prairie dropseed, and Miss Kim lilac.
