Notes

'Willa Gill' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Willa Gill') 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 cream flowers have crinkled, slightly cut edges, and the outer petals roll out as the blooms open. The petals are broad and firm, and the stems are good for cutting.

Pairs well with Annabelle hydrangea, Grape hyacinth, and Smooth aster.
