Notes
'Honeymoon' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Honeymoon') 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. George Hollis bred it. Pair it with other bed plants that bloom at different times to keep color going through the season.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Tiger lily, Quick Fire panicle hydrangea, and Spanish bluebell.
