Moisture Management

The red peony is drought-resistant, but the soil cannot be too dry during the growing period and needs to be replenished with water in time. During the high temperatures in summer and low temperatures in winter, there are also some things to pay attention to when watering the red peony.

Spring is the vigorous growth period of the red peony. During this period, the soil must be kept moist and generally watered every 2 to 3 days.

When the temperature is not high in summer, the red peony will not hibernate. At this time, there is no need to stop watering, just water it normally. If the temperature is too high and the sunlight is too strong, the red peony will go dormant. At this time, you should control watering, but you can spray it appropriately.

Autumn is also the growing season for red peony. Watering in autumn should be coordinated with fertilization, and the soil should be kept moist.

In winter, you need to control the moisture and keep the soil in the pot dry. Generally, you can water it once a month. The water temperature should not be too low. Just make the soil wet when watering.

Fertilization management

The red peony likes fertilizer and is not picky about fertilizer. Compound fertilizer can be applied during the growing period. It is important to apply fertilizer thinly and frequently, once a month. It is best to apply solid fertilizer during cultivation.

Stop fertilizing the red peony in midsummer and severe winter, otherwise it may damage the root system, causing the red peony to rot and be unable to safely survive the winter and summer.
