Peony is fleshy root. When planting, choose loose, fertile and slightly acidic sandy soil. It is not advisable to grow in alkaline soil. If the soil is too alkaline, the leaves will yellow or even shrink and die.
Peony fertilization should be controlled, and fertilize three times a year. The first time when the new shoots are quickly extracted and the leaves and buds are stretching, they mainly apply fast-acting fertilizer, which is called flower-promoting fertilizer.
Peony generally does not need to be watered regularly except for natural precipitation. Usually, it is only suitable for watering before and after the flowering with the most water and in spring drought to replenish the lack of soil moisture. The amount of watering should not be too much each time.
can also safely grow and bloom normally when the extreme maximum temperature in summer reaches 42.1℃, and it can still grow and bloom normally under the conditions of the extreme minimum temperature in winter of -46.5℃.
Peony can grow lushly during the growth period, and the flowers are bright, but they can also grow normally under light shade. During the flowering period, the temperature can be appropriately reduced and humidity can be increased to avoid burns from strong sunlight, thereby prolonging the ornamental period.
The buds on the front side of the flower appear in time after the excess buds appear, so that nutrients can be concentrated and the top buds can be beautiful. After the flowers fade, if you do not plan to collect seeds, cut off the pedicels directly to avoid seeds and consume nutrients.
Pest control and control of peony diseases should be based on early prevention. Once pests and diseases occur, the dose should be appropriately shortened according to the above-mentioned dose according to the degree of occurrence, and the number of medications should be increased appropriately.
