How to prune peonies

How to prune peonies

1. How to trim

1. The best time for the first pruning is from mid-March to early May. When pruning, cut off the overly dense branches and side buds, and keep the strong branches.

2. The second pruning should be done after the flowers have faded, to cut off the remaining flowers and reduce the consumption of nutrients for the plant.

3. The third pruning should be done in late October to early November, and diseased and insect-infested branches, dead branches, and overgrown branches should be pruned away. Some long branches can be appropriately shortened.

2. Precautions

When pruning peonies, pay attention to the flatness of the wound. Flat wounds can promote rapid healing and reduce evaporation. When pruning, make sure the base of the plant is trimmed cleanly.
