Notes

'Majestic Romantic' peony (Paeonia 'Majestic Romantic') 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. The fragrant pink semi-double blooms have lighter edges and attract bees and butterflies. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Swenson Gardens bred it.

Pairs well with Royal Standard hosta, Switchgrass, Black Parrot tulip, and Incrediball hydrangea.
