Notes
'Radiant Star' peony (Paeonia 'Radiant Star') 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. Fragrant pink semi-double flowers attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Plants reach about 28 inches tall, and the upright stems need no support.
Pairs well with Earth Angel hosta, Eastern columbine, Sedge, and Black Parrot tulip.
