Notes

'Grace' peony (Paeonia 'Grace') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 single, light pink flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Saunders bred it in 1929.

Pairs well with Royal Standard hosta, Prairie dropseed, Annabelle hydrangea, and Pink Impression tulip.
