How to manage the peony flowering period and when is the flowering period

1. How to manage the flowering period

1. Bud thinning: After buds appear, bud thinning should be carried out according to the growth of the plant and its previous flowering conditions. It has the phenomenon of alternate years, so if there are more flowers in a year, it is a good year, and some of the small, lower flower buds should be thinned out so that it can bloom better in the later period.

2. Watering: Be sure to water thoroughly before flowering, and stop watering when it is about to bloom. Be careful not to spray water on the leaves or flowers at this time, otherwise it will shorten the flowering period and make the flowers wither easily.

3. Light: It cannot be exposed to strong winds or scorching sun during the flowering period. Therefore, when the flower buds open, use a shade net to block the strong light and avoid direct exposure to the sun. This can extend its flowering period. But be careful not to put it in the shade for a long time, and expose it to more diffuse light.

4. Pruning: After the flowers bloom, cut off the remaining flowers in time. This can reduce nutrient consumption, help it recover, and extend the opening time of other flowers.

2. When is the flowering period?

Its flowering period is usually in spring every year, specifically around April. It only blooms once a year, and the flower does not last long, only about ten days. During the flowering stage, its flowers are large, bright in color, graceful in posture, and quite ornamental. In addition, you can make it bloom in autumn and winter by controlling the temperature and inducing flowering.
