Notes
'Majestic Sweetness' peony (Paeonia 'Majestic Sweetness') 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 double rose-pink blooms have paler edges and a strong sweet fragrance. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Swenson Gardens bred it.
Pairs well with Royal Standard hosta, Little bluestem, and Quick Fire panicle hydrangea.
