Notes

'Heavenly Sugar Cookie' peony (Paeonia 'Heavenly Sugar Cookie') 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. The single, light yellow flowers have cupped, notched petals and attract bees and butterflies. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Roger F. Anderson bred it.

Pairs well with Magnus coneflower, Curly Fries hosta, Phantom panicle hydrangea, and Switchgrass.
