Notes

'Kayleigh Ann' peony (Paeonia 'Kayleigh Ann') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Extra large, fragrant flowers open peach pink with creamy-yellow edges and may need light support. Tim Stanek bred it, and bees and butterflies visit it. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.

Pairs well with Liberty hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Paprika yarrow, and Polish Spirit clematis.
