Long-lasting peonies can produce for many years
Peonies do well in our climate, as they need cold winter temperatures to encourage growth and flower formation.
The peony plant’s requirements are simple. It grows well in full sun, but can also grow in light afternoon shade. However, the number of flowers may be reduced. The soil should be kept evenly moist. My own plants haven’t had any problems with pests or disease.
One major point to consider is that peonies do not like to be transplanted. Therefore it is important to select the best location and prepare the soil properly when initially setting one in the ground.
Do not select a location close to other trees or shrubs. This will prevent the roots of the peony plant from competing for nutrients and space. Allow enough space around each plant since at maturity they can grow to a width of about 3 feet.
If you must transplant one, or have purchased a new plant, these same important procedures apply. The best time to plant or transplant a peony is in September or October.
