Notes

'Radiant Ruffles' peony (Paeonia 'Radiant Ruffles') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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. Soft pink, fragrant, semi-double flowers face upward on stems that reach about 30 inches tall and stand without support. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Dancing Queen hosta, Clustered bellflower, Limelight hydrangea, and Pink Impression tulip.
