Notes
'Yours Truly' peony (Paeonia 'Yours Truly') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. Cream blooms have pink shading and dark violet-red flares, and they age to a lighter color in spring. Derek Irvine bred it in 2001. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Obsidian coral bells, Foxglove, Greig's tulip, and Big bluestem.
