Peony flower pictures (introduction to morphological characteristics and maintenance methods)

1. Morphological characteristics

1. Stem: The stem can grow up to 2 meters, with thick and short branches.

2. Leaves: The terminal leaflets are 7 cm long and 6 cm wide, broadly ovate in shape, and green and hairless. The lateral leaflets are 5 cm long and 3 cm wide, and are narrowly ovate or oblong-ovate in shape.

3. Flowers: Usually bloom in May. The flowers grow solitary at the top of the branches, with 5 green sepals and petals that are single or double. There are many colors, and the eight major colors are famous.

2. Maintenance methods

1. Sunlight: Adequate sunlight is very beneficial to the growth of peonies, but they cannot tolerate direct sunlight. Therefore, in summer, you should avoid exposure to the sun at noon. You can provide appropriate shade or move it to a cool place.

2. Soil: Peony is more suitable to grow in loose and fertile soil. If the soil is too sticky, it will cause poor breathing of the roots.

3. Watering: Peonies are afraid of moisture. Water less frequently and keep the soil dry. Once there is accumulated water, it must be drained out in time to avoid flooding the roots.

4. Fertilization: Fertilizing in spring can effectively promote flowering. Fertilize after flowering to supplement certain nutrients. At the same time, be sure to dilute the fertilizer before applying to avoid excessive concentration of the fertilizer and damage to the roots.
