Notes
'Jubilee' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Jubilee') 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. Sarah A. Pleas bred it. The huge, fluffy double flowers open cream in mid to late spring and age to white. The stems are weak, so stake the plant to keep the blooms off the ground.
Pairs well with Stargazer lily, Spotted dead nettle, and Garlic chives.
