Notes
'Madame Schaenmackers' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Madame Schaenmackers') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. The blooms are double, so they make full, layered flowers for the garden and the vase.
Pairs well with New England aster, Sedge, and Blue grama.
