Notes
'White Ivory' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'White Ivory') 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, double, ivory white flowers open in mid to late spring in a ball form. Strong stems hold up four buds each, and the foliage stays good looking.
Pairs well with Knapweed, Spanish bluebell, and Shrub rose.
