Notes

'Rambler' peony (Paeonia 'Rambler') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. 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. The semi-double, flat blooms are flesh-white and fragrant, and bees and butterflies visit them. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. William Henry Krekler bred it.

Pairs well with Blue Angel hosta, Sweet pepperbush, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Carlton daffodil.
