Notes
'Themis' peony (Paeonia 'Themis') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Its fragrant pink flowers attract butterflies and bees. It grows 36 to 48 inches tall and wide, so give it room. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Blue fescue, Stargazer lily, Baby's breath, and Curly Fries hosta.
