Notes
'Little Splash' peony (Paeonia 'Little Splash') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, 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 single, cupped, frilled flowers are pale yellow and fragrant, and bees and butterflies visit them. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Rainforest Sunrise hosta, Christmas fern, Prairie dropseed, and Queen of Night tulip.
