- Plant, Grow, and Care for Peony Flowers. Why peony bushes grow large and do not bloom at all or blooms very poorly with just a fewer flowers on the entire bush. This is perhaps the most common complaint that seemingly healthy peony plants refuse to fully bloom. The standard explanation may be fine for beginners, but I also know that when planted correctly, peonies very often do not bloom also. It is known that the pieces of roots remaining in the ground after transplanting a peony at a depth of even 30-40 cm can regrow again and form a bush and bloom on their own after 2 years. And sometimes properly buried buds can be on the surface when the soil is washed out or eroded and require hilling and adding soil. In short, the plant can choose a comfortable position for optimal growth and flowering even on its own.

We inherited 3 beautiful red peony bushes when we bought our house 20 years ago. Been told by an elderly neighbour that he’s seen them there all his life. When we paved our driveway we did it around the peony bushes. Apart from prune them in September, I don’t think we have ever done much more. But we always get a beautiful display every spring 😊
Greeting's from Ireland, When my wife's grandmother passed away over thirty year's ago she had an old big peony rose in her garden. The cottage was left to my wife's brother and he wanted to bulldoze the back garden peony included. My mother in law saved tubers and gave one to us which we planted into our front garden. In february I put fish blood and bone around each plant and then mulch the flower beds with homemade compost and that is it for the year. The only downside is the flowerheads are so heavy when it rain's for a few days there falling apart. But we are lucky it gives lots us of flower's and is easy to maintain.
Best demo and description on propagation. After watching your podcast, I will not be intimated to split my peonies. Thank you.
Wow- I’m not nearly so careful with my planting and they are full of flowers. I just make sure to feed in the spring with lots of compost/manure and don’t let them dry out too much. End of care. 👍🌸
This was THE best and most informative video ever! Thank you! I'm going to grow my own wedding flowers. I'll have a long engagement, lol❤
Love my peonies 😊
I found your vid to be very helpful in understanding peonies an often underappreciated old fashioned perennial to a flower border /garden do many flowers to choose from colors / petal choices not to mentione they make for beatiful cut flower arrangements . Thank you 😊 .
Thank you for making this Classy Flowers. Very informative video.
Thank you for the video.
Wow! I had something coming up in a big flower pot that I had no idea what I’d planted. Immediate I recognized it from your video as a peony! Thank you!
❤ thank you for this informative video.
This is by far the best video on peonies I've ever seen. You can't imagine how useful it is for me. Thanks a lot for your effort and observations.🍀❤️👍
What if you don’t bury the eyes of the peony?
When do Peonies Bloom
Please answer if U can!??
@@ChrisCondon-yf1bh Mine bloom in late May and early June.
Excellent research.
Thank you very much.
Excellent work and sharing
Mine out front full sun, has almost hundred blooms after three years 🤷🏼♂️ feel like I need to dead head so heavy 🥰
Thank you so much
😂wow superb advice from an expert.
Thank you 🙏
Thinking about planting some of these near my central a/c unit. The condensation tube during the summer should deliver a very slow but steady drip all summer.
Interesting!!! I grow peonies too. 🌺 ❤️🎶
Fascinating, thank for sharing this insight. I've moved peonys a few times and they've generally recovered fairly quickly. I will be trying your method of impeding downward rooting next time as I've never had the number of stalks your plants show and can see how new shoots could be encouraged with shallower/spread out roots. Here in the UK, the main problem I experience is beautiful blooms being ruined early by winds and rain (flowering here is in April while "April showers" are common and "March winds" often revisit). The 10 minutes it takes to build a twine support tied to four canes (hidden by the abundant foliage) before buds open pays dividends, protecting the flowering stems from all but the worst of the weather.
When can I transplant peonies
@@vel230 I transplanted mine at the end of winter when they were dormant and the stems dead. I don't know if moving them while in growth would be successful.
Ruth here, mone were here when l got here 23 years ago, l transplanted 10 of em and they did fine, l knew nothing about em 😊
Perfect
great info !! such complex plants
Beautiful plants and blooms. Thanks for sharing your tips.
"Muh-NO-tuh-Nuss"
not "MON-o-tone-us."
Major accent on the second syllable, minor accent on the last one.
And ... I love Peonies.
Thank you for this video!
The fine roots are the feeder roots even if you plant peonies properly the plant has to obtain enough energy in the storage roots to supply the crown of the plant to set buds for flowering the following Spring. I planted a peony in (2017). It flushed out with foliage each year. However never flowered. This year in 2024 it's gorgeous and full of huge blooms. They are fickled finikey plants for sure!!! They slept first then they crept and finally they leapth!
I lived in Asheville NC and I saw some Festive Maxima Peonies at the Mountain Inn Motel on Tunnel Road. They were beautiful the owner planted them at the surface you can see the storage roots and he fed them very heavily with (10-10-10) fertilizer they were full of blooms and really needed to be supported to prevent the blooms from touching the ground.
Very educative and superb explanation. Thank you... I liked the diagrams very much and the detailed labeling.
Educative isn't a word
@@andreaconroy3623yes it is
Hi there thank you for this video. I’m new to peonies - my leaves are almost turning in ward, no blotches on leaves or anything. I’ve been super cautious not over watering but I’m thinking perhaps they need more water. Growing mine in pots, first season 2 have flowers forming. Any tips or advice as to why my leaves could be turning in. Will be transplanting mine into soil in autumn
Nice
Very good explanation! Question: since a few years the bus of my pionees are full of holes, some bug? What can I do against that?
Ok, so you say. Last year was a dry year, but I just had the BEST bloom ever on my bushes, in fact a new bush planted last fall bloomed too. The one difference, it was the coldest winter in about 4 yrs. I think peony just does what it wants?
The most beautiful flower. Why haven't growers developed a longer lasting or repeat flowering variety? Or have they?
Thank you for good idea for plant peony. Could you give me more tips for plant peony in big pot? I will appreciate it.
How are some peony bushes so big even dead heading? Do larger bushes come with years/older peonies?
Do these guidelines also apply to Itoh peonies?
I wish I could post a photo of my peony bushes. We water with pond water. They are as big as any I've seen.
❤
Beautiful flower
💕
Hello can peony grow well on Soilless mixture of rice hull, carbonized rice hull, Vermicast with egg shells???
Remember to stake them for the best look, the blooms flop over, I got bamboo stakes and I feel like I get bigger flowers because they aren’t being weighed down
I mis-heard someone and thought they were giving me a command, so thinking they were telling me they needed fertilizer, I peed on those.
Are there any other tips you recommend for people growing Peonies in hot climates such as Texas? Thank you!
Grow near the West side of a big house that can provide lots of shade right after noon for the hot part of the day, but they'll need full, unobstructed sun all morning as this is skirting the line of not enough overall sun. Also grow with lots of deep amended compost in hot climates, as it helps you skirt the fine line between not enough water and not enough oxygen at the roots, which is a real problem where you are. Also research your varieties carefully, as some can grow a whole zone warmer than others
If you're not in Coastal Texas perhaps you can try the old heirlooms.( Festiva Maxima&Sarah Bernhardt and you get the bonus of wonderful fragrance!
Chicken menure helps.
My parents gave me a beautiful peony it had grown quite large and i was thinking about dividing it,then i let it get almost smothered out,it is still surviving so i really need to pamper it now
What if you don’t bury the eyes of the peony?
I purchased a peony two years ago that was unmarked and no yet in bloom but it was surrounded by a variety I wanted. I planted it. It had the yellow stamens. I dislike these but it apparently cross bred with one of my other peonies. It was a magenta colored peony that now has the yellow stamens I dislike. I dug up the offending peony and gave it away, how can I get my older peony to revert back??
May I know where do u buy the net,
Floral supplies store, art and crafts store. Dollars store, Michaels
Thanks you,
Beautiful, 1 question, my peonies after blooming get a light mildew fungus on their leaves, is there anything to help with this problem? Thanks for the info, I will be transplanting this autumn.
I would try sulfur powder. Mix some in their water, use a bucket and a tiny bit of Castile or dish soap to break the surface tension of the water. Do this every other watering on any plant bothered by mildew and/or spider mites.‘I find if they are sulfur sufficient they are lest prone. Also dust the plant with sulfur in some sort of shaker or puffer bottle situation.
Sulphur is soo bad for our environment. Breathing it in cab be dangerous. There’s absolutely no need for it with peonies
They don't like overhead watering especially in evening or at night so leaves/blooms can't dry out completely. They need air flow around the plant and good drainage.
@@Tarot_Time_with_Belle could you suggest to me where I can find information on this? I am talking about simple elemental sulfur, and though I realize it readily binds with other elements, I am not finding much information on the danger to the environment by dusting it in the garden. Freaking spider mites also pose a threat to an plant they like, and sulfur is the most effective thing I have found to combat them.
Diatomaceous earth that's food grade may help.
I need to learn how to grow peonies in pots but don’t seem to find experienced videos.
Peonies don’t grow in pots. They need to be planted in the ground.
How can I get peony roots of different colors?asking from India.
I lived in AZ . Can I plant peony flowers in my state?
When can I plant peony?
Please reply to me.
Thanks a lot.
She won't reply.
Look up your planting zone for your area.
Look up the general zone for a peony.
Herbaceous peonies and itoh peonies and tree peonies are your 3 general kinds. Within those are different varieties of flowering colors.
I'm pretty sure it's 3a-8a
Peonies are very forgiving plant. They bloom every year, transplant it everywhere there is sunshine or under the shade. I live in the Zone5-6. Easy to divide and supplant, will slowly grow the first year.
In cold climates, peonies are planted with the eye 2 to 2.5 inches below the soil. There seems to be no effect on their blooming.
I read that the highest eye tip should be 1" - 1.5"
What fertilizer do u use
Something like a 10 - 10-10 is fine or less. Compost is your safest bet
I use Plant Tone for my perennials. I feed my gardens during late winter before my perennials break dormancy. You can observe once you start to apply it to your garden the vigor of your plants become stronger each Spring when the are growing. And it's organic. I garden in (zones 8a/8b)
My peony had only 2blooms and that’s it,they’ve finished.
The problem I have is with white powder or mold on the leaves.
That’s very common
Where from I get this plant
All nurseries and big box stores in North America (north of Texas) will carry them for sale in late spring
Online divisions for shipping and planting in Autumn. September and October are best months to divide and/or purchase and plant. They require good drainage, about six hours of sunlight, don’t crowd them! Don’t feed your baby adult vitamin/fertilizer doses.
Is it a perennial plant?
Yes.
@@LinA-it9vd Nice, then I need one in my garden!
They can last for decades actually!
Little fact-the Japanese man who crossed the tree peony with the Herbaceous peony died before seeing his Itoh peonies bloom!
But it worked!
@@dannac_8888 Thank you for sharing.
Plastic mesh right under the roots?? No, no, no!! That's a really bad idea
Do you think that the plastic mesh under the roots will obtain to much water around the storage roots of the plant during the winter and perhaps cause roots to rot?
@@tammiedunbar6166 The roots grow through and get constricted, limiting growth. In almost every way, this is the same as the evil mesh pots that are sometimes hidden in the soil of various garden plants and houseplants from less-scrupulous nurseries who don't bother to remove them during earlier up-potting. It is one of the great nemeses of any advanced gardener, right up there with horsetail or bindweed. As a collector, I've grown hundreds of peonies over almost 4 decades and I can assure you that this nonsense method will only result in smaller, weaker plants long-term. Even if the roots did not get constricted, trying to cut off access to half of their usual soil volume of course will make smaller plants
I agree with Grrrnthumb, above. Mesh is not necessary and has zero benefits. I have 3-400 peony plants in my yard, also a collector.
How to make peonies bloom
Don't kill the ants! They are symbiotic with the peonies.
I was blowing them off😅
Hugely!
I was wondering why my peonies had so many ants! I wanted to water them off the buds!
The ants eat sugar on the flower so it can bloom.
They eat the sugar on the flower to allow the flower to open
Pardon?……Can you put subtitles on ?
There is a transcript 😊
Ta
Aren't you concerned about freezing the roots in winter?
They like it cold.
I have peonies and I'm in western Canada -30 celcius here at times in winter and mine are fine..mulch in fall :)
@@WaningGibbous And did you plant your peonies on top of a bunch of bricks?
Your plants are planted too close. Wait until September and cut all the foliage off, dig the mature plant, divide it as peonies do not bloom well if just transplanted, plant three feet from other plants as peonies do not compete well with other plants, bushes, or trees. They are heavy feeders once mature. Feed them three times a year if you can: Early Spring, after blooming, and September.
No Metric
No kidding, that was weird.
No, the rest of the world uses it but YOU! 😅
MONO-tone-us tips? Didn't even know you meant the word monotonous for a second. Muh-NOT-un-us.
Please learn the correct pronunciation of ‘momotonous’.
no.
Booooorrrrrring……….dear lord, this was painful
Lmao “richdeerhunter” watching a peony pruning video😂🤡
What soil do they need
Peonies are very adaptable, but ideally, they like a well-drained, slightly acidic soil (6.5-7.0 pH).
