Notes
'Madame Thibault' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Madame Thibault') 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 flowers are double, so each bloom is full of petals. You can cut the blooms to bring them indoors. Paillet bred it in 1889.
Pairs well with Siberian iris, New England aster, and Switchgrass.
