Why don't my peonies bloom?

1. Improper pruning

1. Reason: When the peony branches are too lush, they need to be pruned. If they are not pruned in time or the pruning is unreasonable, they will not bloom.

2. Solution: When pruning it, first remove the diseased and broken branches, and then cut off the extra side branches to leave growth space and nutrients for the main branches.

2. Timely division

1. Reason: You must choose the right time when dividing the peony. If the division is too late, it will not bloom.

2. Solution: The division must be completed before October. After this time, it will enter its growth period. At this time, it has a great demand for nutrients. Division at this time will easily cause nutrient loss, so October of each year is the most suitable time to divide it.

3. Avoid the cold

1. Reason: Peony is not cold-resistant. If it is moved outdoors too early before the spring cold has passed, it will easily catch the cold and fail to bloom.

2. Solution: It is best to move it outdoors in April or May, so that when the spring cold is over, the plant will not fail to bloom.

4. Treat Pests

1. Reason: Peonies are infected with pests and will not bloom.

2. Solution: First observe where the pests are infected, if the branches and leaves are infected. Use pesticides to kill insects on the plants, and use the amount according to the instructions. If the potting soil is infested with pests, you should change the soil in time.
