Notes

'T.J. Oberlin' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'T.J. Oberlin') is a shrub for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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. Oberlin bred it in 1944. Its woody stems stay above ground through winter, so you only need to trim out dead wood.

Pairs well with May Night salvia, Weigela, Cinnamon fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
