How to grow peony in autumn

1. Reduce watering frequency

In summer, because the evaporation is relatively large, in order to prevent the peony flowers from lacking water, they are generally watered every 5-7 days during cultivation. However, after entering autumn, you should reduce the number of times you water it, and only water it once every 7-10 days. Because the evaporation rate decreases after autumn, if you still water it at the same frequency as in summer, water will accumulate in the soil, which will damage its root system.

2. Reduce the number of fertilizations

After autumn, the frequency of fertilization should also be reduced. Because it generally does not bloom in autumn, the amount of fertilizer required will be reduced. Specifically, it is sufficient to fertilize once a month. However, be careful to dilute the fertilizer before application.

3. Slightly trim the branches

After autumn, you can prune it once. The main purpose is to cut off the overgrown and dense branches to make it grow healthier. In addition, there is another purpose, which is to adjust the flower shape of the plant to make it more beautiful.

4. Planting existing seeds

If any flower lovers have its seeds left, it is best to plant them now. Because the weather is very good at this time, sowing at this time can greatly increase the germination rate.
