Notes
'Majestic Beauty' peony (Paeonia 'Majestic Beauty') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Its double, fragrant, soft pink blooms reach 6 inches wide and fade to white at the tips. Swenson Gardens bred it.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Prairie dropseed, and Empress Wu hosta.
