Peonies are so wonderful- Thanks for this episode! Last summer my mom gave me her Sarah Bernhardt 'clump' of peonies that hadn't bloomed in several years. She had been mulching it up and I think that may be why it was always just stems and leaves, no blossoms. In any case, I took it home and divided it and now I have about 7 new plants! They all came up this spring, but I probably won't get any blooms this year. They will need more time to get to that stage.
One other tip I have learned about peonies, is that they like nice loose loam soil, NOT clay rich soil. I tried to plant some one year in an area of my yard that was like gumbo and they just didn't thrive or do anything! So I transplanted them to another spot and, what do you know, they are much happier.
Thanks again for a great show!
Oh the peony. I secretly hated them when I grew and sold flowers in London because I didn’t have the space for them. I tried to push my early lilies but people were on the mission for peonies. And now I’m back in 9b with warm winters and there’s no chance I can grow them or anyone else. So now I love them again 😊
Thank you 🩷🌱🌻
Thanks for yet another interesting Seed Talk! There are peony varieties that has sturdy enough stems to stand upright even fully open. Perfect for the landscape!
Thanks so much for sharing this helpful tip! 🤗 If you have any favorite varieties, please feel free to share 💕 Thanks again, and have a wonderful day! 💚🤗💚
Im my area they are always in the wrong location and to much shade.. and they flop down on the ground..
Pacific Northwest gardener - just waiting for my blooms!
Could Lane post a picture of her peony arch?
I know this is totally contrary to the point made by the video, but I now want to add Sara B to my peony collection, despite having the Jules Eilie and a few single pinks 😅 I love collecting them and I know Home Depot had them this year, lol
That's it ladies, I'm moving or at least dividing them in the fall. I disbudded last year and they were glorious..
I have black spot? Any help with that?
❤
