Notes
'Luna Fortuna' peony (Paeonia 'Luna Fortuna') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 fragrant yellow flowers attract butterflies and bees, but the heavy blooms may need support at their peak. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Joshua Scholten bred it.
Pairs well with White Feather hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and African Queen lily.
