Notes

'Ocellata' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Ocellata') is a shrub for borders, cut flower 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. The flowers make good cut stems for indoor arrangements. Plant it in a spot where its woody stems can stay in place from year to year.

Pairs well with Susan magnolia, Cinnamon fern, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Blue Arrow Rocky mountain juniper.
