Notes

'Origin of Serenity' peony (Paeonia 'Origin of Serenity') 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. Nate Bremer bred it, and its ruffled white double blooms have a champagne-pink glow at the base. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. The stems lean in flower, but you do not need to stake them.

Pairs well with White Swan coneflower, Halcyon hosta, and Switchgrass.
