Notes
'Jane Addams' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Jane Addams') 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. The double blooms are pure white and have a lovely form. They are fragrant, so they make a nice cut flower for a vase. Archie M. Brand bred it.
Pairs well with Balloon flower, Charles Joly lilac, and Sedge.
