Notes

'Nong Zui Mo Xiang' peony (Paeonia 'Nong Zui Mo Xiang') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. The semi-double, fragrant flowers open in early to late spring. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Its early foliage emerges red, and the stems need no support.

Pairs well with False indigo, Maltese cross, and Lily.
