Peony is famous for its enchanting flower posture and rich colors. It is known as the "Prime Minister among Flowers" and is also called the "Woman Flower". Its rhizome has multiple medicinal values in gynecological medicine. Let’s learn below: When is the best time to plant peonies? 1. Planting time Peony is suitable for planting in autumn, and the best time is from August to September every year, that is, from the end of August to the end of September. The climate is cool during this period, which is suitable for the growth of peonies. It also allows them to grow new roots before winter, laying the foundation for rapid growth in the spring of the following year. 2. Root preparation In the cool autumn months of September and October, dig out the tubers, shake off the soil, dry them in the sun, and cut them into tubers with small buds. Before planting, the cut should be dried and sulphur powder applied to sterilize it. 3. Soil preparation The soil in the planting area needs to be leveled, and deep, loose, fertile and slightly acidic soil should be selected. If it is a potted plant , you need to prepare sandy soil suitable for peony growth in advance and apply base fertilizer. 4. Planting method Plant the root tuber with the sprouts in the prepared soil, cover the soil and compact it lightly, making sure the sprouts are exposed. After planting, water it thoroughly and place it in a well-ventilated, semi-shaded place for maintenance. 5. Post-management Peony likes sunlight and is a long-day plant. Sufficient light should be ensured during the growing period, but strong direct sunlight should be avoided. When watering, you should follow the principle of "don't water unless the soil is dry, and water thoroughly when you do", and avoid water accumulation in the pot. 6. Fertilization Peony likes fertilizer and needs regular topdressing after it resumes growth to ensure sufficient nutrients to ensure vigorous growth and better flowering. 7. Winter management During the dormant period of the plant in winter, water should be controlled appropriately to facilitate root development. In short, compared with peony , peony is more adaptable to the growing environment and has better cold resistance. Peony flowers are large and the leaves are bright green. It is a perennial flower . Once planted, you can enjoy its beauty for many years.
