Notes
'Yellow Beauty' peony (Paeonia 'Yellow Beauty') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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 dwarf plant has fragrant double flowers with narrow yellow petals inside large pink outer petals. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Gilbert S. Richmond bred it.
Pairs well with Stained Glass hosta, PowWow White coneflower, Carlton daffodil, and Standing Ovation little bluestem.
