Peony is also called the "parting grass" and the "prime minister among flowers." It is a herbaceous perennial. Although it is not as lavish and opulent as the tree peony, it is still quite beautiful, and it comes in many colors: yellow, white, red, pink, purple, and so on. Peony flowers can be planted not only on a terrace in the open air outdoors, but also in flower pots. Plant it once, and from then on you can enjoy the flowers every year. The blooms are very beautiful. When should peonies be planted?

Now is just the right time to plant a peony. It sprouts especially fast, and its blooms are plentiful and beautiful. It is easy to grow into a full pot!

Generally, the best time to plant peonies is autumn, around September and October, but you should not plant too early or too late, otherwise it will affect their sprouting and root growth, and they will also just grow leaves without blooming.

So autumn is also a suitable time to plant and transplant peonies. Even if the roots are damaged, they can heal and grow well. If you transplant in other seasons, the timing is not right, it is difficult for them to grow well, and it will also affect blooming.

If you want to grow peonies, you can plant them directly from rhizomes, or divide and plant them from the original parent plant. If relatives or friends have grown them, you can dig up some tuberous roots and bring them back, prepare a flower pot with a larger diameter and greater depth, then bury them in the potting soil and water them. That is all it takes, and you can propagate a beautiful pot of peony flowers yourself.

When transplanting peony flowers, note that it is better for the roots to keep a bit of old soil or a soil ball. Cut off some dead branches and diseased branches, and choose loose, breathable, fertile soil for planting. You can add some nutrient soil, leaf mold, peat soil, and the like. In short, it must not be too poor.

After planting, keep the potting soil moist, but do not water too much and do not let water accumulate. After a period of acclimation, give it plenty of light. Place it on a terrace or balcony with good ventilation and ample light.

Once a potted peony has been grown for one to two years, we can repot it. You can leave part of the old soil on the roots and add part of new soil, fertile soil, leaf mold, and the like.

It will then grow especially vigorously and produce one large, brilliant flower after another in May and June. Xiaoya also grew a pot on the balcony, and there are flowers to enjoy every year!
