Notes

'Greenland' peony (Paeonia 'Greenland') 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 white double flowers have green undertones and ruffled, cupped petals. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Seidl introduced it in 1989.

Pairs well with Hosta, Blue grama, and Annabelle hydrangea.
