I’m truly blessed - I have about 40 varieties in northeastern Connecticut. They are the beautiful workhorse of my flower beds and I love them all!
Very timely. My peonies are just budding. I generally don’t cut the flowers off at all, but now I know how to cut them. Thanks.
Oh Allen! I have peony envy! Love Gilbert H. Wild too and order something from them every year thanks to you! I have loved peonies for so long and wish I had better experience with them here in Zone 8a North Texas area. I purchased some a few years ago and unfortunately someone we hired to plant trees went ahead and planted the peonies and I know they planted them too deep to flower. They leaf out beautifully so I need to dig them up and replant somewhere. Thanks so much for your great videos and info. Love your beautiful Moss Mountain and have visited once. If I still lived in my home state of Arkansas, I would volunteer to work in your gardens. :)
I love the way peonies look, I've only ever seen them on TH-cam or in pictures because apparently here in Florida the Peonies don't thrive and don't survive for long. If I ever move again I want to be sure it is far enough north to be able to grow peonies.
Very informative, I love my peonies that have been growing on my farm for at least 50 to 60 years!
I love peonies
They are my absolutely favorite garden plant!! Thank you for the informative video.
Interesting observation: Two properties each with peonies. One cuts them to the ground (to keep it tidy) after flowering and the other guy does absolutely nothing - doesn't even clean dead foliage in fall.
I noticed the one that was completely neglected has many huge blooms and strong stems. The one that was cut back has much smaller, fewer blooms on weaker stems.
Even though they are the same variety the neglected ones are more fragrant too!
Now I can see why they live so long on old farmsteads and cemeteries!
I'm sitting here looking out over my peony bed where 16 plants are starting to bloom. I moved them over two years to make sure they were planted right. But I have never tried cutting them so early. Must try that soon since many are now showing color.
How come your peonies have not any ants showing 🤔
@@sherrythompson7128 Could you explain? I get lots of ants. I put the stems in a bucket of water, out on the porch, until they crawl away. It works well.
@@TheKoolbraider thanks 😊
You are always so informative
Thanks Allen beautiful flowers.
All my questions were answered in this video. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for the video. I absolutely love them.
Beautiful! Thank you!
I live in middle Georgia which I understand isn't the best of places to grow peonies...the lack of cold winter has much to do with that.
But nonetheless I decided some 30 years ago to give them a try.
I planted 2 types..Festival Maxima and Sarah Bernhardt. Sarah was in too much shade...greens up but no flowers. But Festiva Maxima has been more successful. Full sun, probably 8 hours a day. And has produced some beautiful flowers. There have been years of no blooms but this year I've seen 6 to 8 buds forming. They are one of my favorite flowers, a single one in a vase really is a delight to enjoy.
Thank you. Great video.
So beautiful 😍😍😍
Thank You
I can almost smell this video! These are my mother's absolute favorite flowers. I love that you can cut them in the marshmallow stage and ship them. I hope one day to be able to have a home where I can plant a whole garden of different varieties so they'll bloom like you said in stages for longer periods of time.
I do have a question... can these be planted in a large container? I currently live in an apartment, but have a large porch that can get both full sun and shade. I was wondering if I had a large container would i be able to plant them and grow them now, and then transplant them into a garden when I get a house? I live in Western NC in the Asheville area.
Thanks!
I imagine the smell 😌
Does this information apply to herbaceous/tree/itoh varieties?
Ant problems? Save your orange peels! Make a tincture with white vinegar. Let it set for 2 weeks, in a closed bottle. Strain out the peel and pour in a spray bottle. Spray areas you have ants, indoors and outdoors.
Hii, 💕I received a beautiful bouquet of peonies. I have a question, I can see seed pods in the center of some of them, is it possible to re plant those once the petals fall off?? 💕
Personally they've always reminded me of what I thought a rose should be called 💞 I think they look more like roses than roses do 😁
I thought peonies look more like chrysanthemums 😍🌹
I want to plant in my shade garden; What kind of arrangement of purple perennials should I plant. I also have some Hostas there. I live in NE Tennessee.
So if we have a mild winter in VA, I might not bet many blooms? We didn’t have many this year.
Can u plant and grow peonies in containers instead of in the ground do they like partial sun and shade or full sunny
I bought today one peony root, but it does not have any pink or white eye. Is it dormant or dead? I soaked root in water. How many hours should I soak root in water?
So cutting off flowers with Their stems is useful to the plant, not harmful? I’m worried if I cut it off it won’tgrow again 😅
@11:40 what is underplanted?
We are in New York long island when is best time of year to plant them
Plant in the fall
I love peony but I don't know if it can stand the hot weather in Philadelphia
I’m in Central PA and mine do just fine. Sometimes they will get powdery mildew early on in the fall because they are planted close to the house and don’t get enough air circulation (I think?) but otherwise PA a is a good state for them!
I'm in my 3rd yr no blooms yet. My garden faces north.. It get good morning sun and pretty good afternoon sun.. Am I still in good expectation?.. I have bulbs (lots of ants).. No blooms.. Yet
And now…… ?
Help l bought a peony 2 years ago in bud the plant got stress with the extreme heat, l moved her in the fall this year l don't have buds the stems and leaves are ok. Why is my peony not setting buds the eyes are above ground.
Transplants can take a while. They don’t really like to be moved too much. Give it time. She’ll come around.
I love peonies, but I'm so allergic to them
