Notes

'Kikhpinych' peony (Paeonia 'Kikhpinych') 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. Its large cream flowers are washed with mauve-pink and attract bees and butterflies. The upright stems crave support, so stake them early. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Dittany, Liberty hosta, and Blue grama.
