Notes
'Victoria alba' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Victoria alba') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. The woody stems stay above ground through winter, so skip the fall cutback you would give a garden peony.
Pairs well with Little Lime panicle hydrangea, Moonshine yarrow, and Cinnamon fern.
