Notes

'Full Moon' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Full Moon') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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. Its white blooms add bright color to the garden and look lovely in a vase indoors. You can cut the flowers for bouquets and still enjoy plenty in the bed. Kelway bred it.

Pairs well with Big Daddy hosta, Phantom panicle hydrangea, and Picture tulip.
