Notes
'Rose Fantasy' peony (Paeonia 'Rose Fantasy') is a perennial for 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 fragrant, dusty rose flowers have darker flares and a silvery edge that shows more as they age. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. William J. Seidl introduced it in 1989.
Pairs well with Stella de Oro daylily, Stained Glass hosta, and Prairie dropseed.
