Peonies are a beautiful decoration of the garden, but in order to grow healthily and luxuriantly, they require proper care. We suggest how to take care of these plants so that they catch the eye with their colorful colors.
How to grow beautiful peonies? Remember the planting date
Peonies were cultivated as early as 3,000 years ago in China. These are one of the oldest decorative flowers that are willingly planted in our gardens. However, it is worth remembering that in order for them to grow beautifully, they must be planted at the right time. It is best to plant them at the turn of August and September, when they slowly go into the dormant phase. In the spring, stores often sell them in containers, so they should be planted as soon as possible after purchase. They like a sunny position, sheltered from the wind. They grow best on sandy-clay soils with a high content of humus. They also do not require frequent watering, and when providing water, be careful not to pour the leaves, as they can quickly start to rot.

Peonies in a vase. A trick that will make the buds grow quickly
Peonies bought in pots should be placed at the right depth for them to grow and develop properly. Remember that the height of the soil in the pot should be equal to the height of the ground. If the plant has an exposed root system, let’s put it shallow into the ground, and preferably put the buds to a depth of 3 to 5 cm. The time of picking flowers is also an important element. It is safest to cut them at dawn, when the peony is just opening its buds. Then we will enjoy the flowers longer.
