Notes
'Stellar Charm' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Stellar Charm') 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. The fragrant white flowers have yellow centers and bloom in early to late spring. Side buds extend the flowering time. The upright bush stands well without support, and Don Hollingsworth bred it.
Pairs well with Royal fern, Spanish bluebell, and Orange daylily.
