Notes
'Globetrotter' peony (Paeonia 'Globetrotter') 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. Big single red flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The upright plant reaches about 30 inches tall.
Pairs well with Patriot hosta, Prairie dropseed, Little Beauty tulip, and Baby's breath.
