🌺Growing Better Peony 🌺

Episode 659

Hey there, fellow plant enthusiasts! Ken Lain the Top 10 Gardner Here.

Have you ever dreamt of those big, beautiful peony blooms gracing your garden? Imagine fluffy blossoms in every shade, from pink and coral to creamy white – they smell amazing, too! Well, dream no more! Peonies are fantastic perennials that, with a little know-how, can thrive for decades.

The secret to success? Sun and spacing! Peonies need at least 6 hours of sunlight a day for those show-stopping flowers (some afternoon shade might be helpful in scorching climates). And when planting, think ahead – peonies like their space. Give them about 3-4 feet between plants to stretch their roots. Remember, peonies like their "knees" exposed – don't bury the crown (that knobby bit with the eyes) deeper than 3 inches. Patience is key: established peonies might take a year or two to really hit their flowering stride, but the wait is absolutely worth it!
