Notes

'More Glory' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'More Glory') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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 flowers are lavender pink with shading. They look much like those of Gloriana. William Henry Krekler bred it.

Pairs well with Charles Joly lilac, Catnip, and Queen of Night tulip.
