Notes
'Majesty’s Cup' peony (Paeonia 'Majesty’s Cup') 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, average moisture, and loamy soil. Each self-supporting stem grows up to 28 inches tall and carries one fragrant, cupped yellow flower that bees and butterflies visit. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Roger F. Anderson bred it.
Pairs well with Blue-eyed grass, Blue fescue, and Lily.
