Notes
'Wedding Gown' peony (Paeonia 'Wedding Gown') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. The fragrant red double flowers face upward and open in early to midseason. Plants stand upright, so they need no support.
Pairs well with Autumn Frost hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Bobo hydrangea.
