Notes
'Moroshechnaya' peony (Paeonia 'Moroshechnaya') 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. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The large, pale yellow flowers are fragrant and open early in spring, and the stems may need support.
Pairs well with Fragrant Bouquet hosta, Queen of Night tulip, and Christmas fern.
