Planting peonies

Peonies like moist and nutrient-rich soil and a place in full sun. Do not plant the rhizomes of the peony too deep, as this can cause the plant to flower poorly. The nose of the plant only needs to be 1-2 centimetres under the soil. Peonies can be planted in autumn or spring, as peonies are hardy. Please note that peonies do not produce many flowers in the first year. Size 3/5 rhizomes generally produce flowers faster than size 2/3 rhizomes. If the rhizomes are planted in the autumn, they have more time to make extra roots and they will give more flowers. The second year they give good flowers. After 6 to 10 years the peony plants can be thrown up. You can then split the plants and replant them in another place.
