Notes
'Joyful Celebration' peony (Paeonia 'Joyful Celebration') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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. Roger F. Anderson bred it, and the fragrant pink semi-double blooms attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. The upright stems stand 26 to 28 inches tall and need no support.
Pairs well with Sum and Substance hosta, Blonde Ambition blue grama, Black Hero tulip, and Charles Joly lilac.
