Notes

'Snow Cream' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Snow Cream') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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. It bears double white blooms. Kelway bred it, so it makes a classic choice for a cutting garden.

Pairs well with Autumn Frost hosta, Smooth hydrangea, and Queen of Night tulip.
