Notes

'Ivory Cuddles' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Ivory Cuddles') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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. It blooms in early spring with ivory single flowers and red stigmas. Each stem carries one bud, and the dark green foliage sets off the blooms. Roy G. Klehm bred it.

Pairs well with Spanish bluebell, Royal fern, and Orange lily.
