🌱 Peony – Herbaceous: Growing Guide
Herbaceous peonies develop from tuberous roots and reach around 1 m tall. Expect full blooms after 2–3 years of establishment:
• Soil: Neutral to slightly acidic (pH ~7.0); enrich with compost or blood & bone at planting
• Depth & Spacing: Plant buds 3–5 cm deep; space plants ~1 m apart
• Light: Full sun with partial shade in hotter zones
• Feeding: Use compost or general fertilizer in early spring and after blooming
• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells
• Winter Care: Requires cold exposure—plant in frost-prone areas without mulch
• Pruning: Cut foliage to ~10 cm before leaf drop to prevent disease
• Division: Conduct in winter dormancy when needed; keep roots cool and moist
• Container Growing: Possible with deep pots, winter chill, and regular feeding
