Notes

'Jack Barclay' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Jack Barclay') 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. It blooms in late spring. Fred E. Winslow bred it, and Krekler Peony Farm introduced it in 1956.

Pairs well with Prairie dropseed, Spotted beebalm, and Christmas fern.
