Notes
'Magic Charmer' peony (Paeonia 'Magic Charmer') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. Rose red blooms with a touch of cream open in early to late spring and attract butterflies. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Derek Irvine bred it.
Pairs well with Paris coral bells, Jacob’s ladder, and Lily.
