PLANT

Always let the fresh land plants soak in a bucket of water first. The plant can safely lie in the water for half an hour to an hour to replenish moisture after transport.

Do not plant the eyes of the peony deeper than 5 centimeters in the ground. If the peony is planted too deeply, it will not flower. In a milder climate, 2 to 3 cm below the ground is recommended, so that the eyes truly get some cold. It is advisable to mix compost into the topsoil. Be careful with fresh manure, as this can cause the core to rot.

CARE

Support your peony with a support ring for the large flowers. Fertilize the plant twice a year to stimulate growth, in the autumn and in the spring, after flowering. Preferably choose an organic fertilizer, as this nourishes the plant slowly over a longer period. In the spring, also cut away any remaining leaves and stems.

In the first year after planting, there is only a small chance that your peony will flower, as the plant will need to get used to its new spot. A peony is often at its most beautiful after about 4 years and then produces an abundance of flowers. It is advisable to divide the plant after about 8 or 9 years, if you notice that flowering is decreasing. Then dig up the plant and divide it. Replant the younger parts in another spot in the garden. This way, your peony plant can last a lifetime!

SPOT IN THE GARDEN

Choose fertile and well-draining soil. Optionally, mix sand or compost into the soil to improve drainage. Always plant peonies in the open ground and in full sun. Make sure you do not plant a peony in a spot where a peony has previously grown; instead, choose a different location. The previous peony may have left behind a disease or depleted the soil.

PEONY FAQs

Will I have flowers from the first year?

You will have flowers from the second year! In the first year, you might see a single flower, but that's not always the case. A peony always needs some time to adjust to a new location. Because we only sell peonies of the best quality, many of our customers do see a flower in the first year.

Can I plant a peony in a pot?

We do not recommend planting a peony in a pot. Peonies need space for their roots to spread, so they are best planted directly in the ground. It is always more difficult to get a peony to bloom in a pot. In a very large container, it often works, but if you have the option, planting it directly in the ground is truly the best.

How many flowers come from one root tuber?

The short answer: a lot! From the root tuber, the peony grows into a large perennial in a shrub-like form. In the first year, you won't have many stems and, with luck, one or a few flowers, because the plant still needs to get used to its new spot. But the peony gets bigger every year and produces more and more flowers. From about 4 years old, the peony is in its mature state and then gives an abundance of flowers.

How much space should I leave for my peony?

A root tuber grows into a substantial plant within 2 to 3 years. Account for a space of 0.8 m2 to 1 m2.

Is a peony winter hardy?

Yes, absolutely, a peony is very winter hardy and can also withstand frost well. In fact, a peony really needs a cold period to fully rest during the winter.
