Potted peonies need to be watered according to the dryness and wetness of the potting soil. They should not be too dry, but the amount of watering should be controlled each time, and never water too much.

3. Reasonable fertilization: Peony needs to be fertilized reasonably, and the number of topdressing does not need to be too many. In addition to applying base fertilizer when potting, topdressing should be applied once when the leaves grow, once during the flowering period, and once again in autumn and winter.
