Can peonies be transplanted in spring?

1. Is it possible to transplant?

Spring is not suitable for transplanting peonies, the survival rate will be lower. The best time for transplanting is autumn, probably from September to October. The plant will slowly go dormant in autumn, and transplanting it at this time can help the plant survive better. If it is transplanted in spring, once its root system is damaged, it will affect its later flowering. When transplanting in spring, try to keep some of the old soil with you to reduce the damage.

2. Precautions

1. Attached soil: During the transplanting process, it is best to keep the original soil ball at the root system, so as not to easily damage its roots. If all the soil is cleared away, the roots will be damaged to some extent.

2. Fertilization: It is recommended to apply some farmyard manure when transplanting, so that the plant can absorb some nutrients after transplanting.

3. Watering: After transplanting, you should water it and water it thoroughly. This has two purposes. It can not only help the plant absorb water and fertilizer, but also make its roots fit better with the soil.
