Notes

'Papaveracea Pomponia' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Papaveracea Pomponia') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, 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. Peonies bring large spring blooms to a bed. A tree peony keeps its woody stems through winter, so prune only to remove dead wood.

Pairs well with Mock orange, Sedge, and Bloodroot.
