Notes
'Radiant Embrace' peony (Paeonia 'Radiant Embrace') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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. Large pink semi-double flowers are fragrant and face upward, and bees and butterflies visit them. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Swenson Gardens introduced it in 2025.
Pairs well with Perennial candytuft, Blazing star, and Western sword fern.
