Hi Kelly, I have never had peonies bloom twice in one season . I think their nature is to do the one and done flower show but they are soooo worth it . Thank you for checking in from Buffalo 🌸🤗👏🌎🌻
@@KellyLehman I'd forgotten to say how absolutely gorgeous all your peonies are. I have about 6 plants, but I think I have to bring them to the surface a bit. I think they're too deep and I'm not getting many blooms on a couple plants. It's been a few years since I've done that.
It's good to hear a Jersey accent again! I live in middle Tennessee now, Zone 6B, originally from north Jersey, Zone 5b/6a. We have a row of beautiful peonies that are over 60 years old. The story goes that my mother-in-law received them as a gift when my husband was born. They have a lot of meaning for us! I did my due diligence to prepare the soil well for the tubers we split from the originals and they are doing very well. I want to make sure I continue to care for them well. I had never heard of dry cutting before and I will definitely do this next Spring.
Chicago here! Love your videos. Thanks for sharing the peony tips. I inherited a hundred plants from the former ow er of my home. I'm going to try this method today. Thanks!!
Yes; they’re just so beautiful 😍😍!!! We bought our house 6 years ago & the previous owner was A flower lady ; we luckily inherited a boat load of Perennial blooms all around the house including 3 gorgeous Peonies bushes . She has made me really get into planting more flowers 🌸. Happy Gardening!!!
I planted peony bulbs in Spring. Since then, I read the flowers only last 7-10 days. Is that true and, if true, is there anything I can do to get the blooms to last longer.
I Kelly, from Niagara Falls, Ontario . Found your podcasts,looking for hydrangeas care and got peonies too! Fantastic. Just wish peonies would last longer, they are just divine. Love that big pooch.
Can you freeze the blooms in the marshmallow stage and have them bloom months later? My friends are planning their wedding and this is their plan: cut them in May and use them in August. I am extremely concerned!
Love, Love, LOVE my peonies! Got my start when a co-worker had to move to Colorado & gave me all her peony tubers. Ever since, have moved my peonies whenever I move (different places in Pennsylvania). Daughter who lives in NM wishes she could grow them, too, but can't. Funny story: one year my kids & the neighbor kids got to playing in the bulb garden & decided that the little balls made super-good ammunition. Almost hung those kids from the clothesline that year!
VERY helpful information I love peonies and didn't know NOT to cut them way down to inches from ground and then Pretty soon I had no blooms the following years !!! then I was scared to cut any !!! But now I'd like to make bouquets Thank you for you info I'm in zone 5 in Vermont
Love your you tube videos, just moved to Arkansas from California, and I am finally growing peonies, I had my first blooms this year, Thank you for all the great tips on flowers.
Thank you so much Kelly and Lucy!!!🥰 Peonies are my absolute favorites! The beauty of the bloom takes my breath away and the sweet aroma puts me into a waking dream! I always have to rush my cuttings, because they do come all at once. This year I gave away 5 huge bouquets 💐 because my house was filled, a storm was coming (and you know how one good thunder storm and downpour will ruin those delicate petals!), and I didn't have any more vases!!! This tip is too good to be true! I will most certainly use it next year, as sadly, my I peonies are pretty much done outside, except a few buds that may open. Thank you again! And I ❤seeing Lucy, reminds me of my Bernie, Sammy who I still miss everyday!😇
Very helpful! Thank you... Watching from Virginia, zone 8. Peonies are my absolute FAVORITE! Hoping to plant my own. Right now, I wait for Trader Joe's to have them once a year and go crazy! 😂❤
Hi from Canada. I bought some peony roots at a big box store, put in dirt and have been keeping in greenhouse, only 3 of 6 are poking up. How long do they usually take to wake up?
Thank you! Viewing from Dunedin in New Zealand. A very helpful video.
In Nova a Scotia and my favorite flower is the beautiful Peony
Any suggestions on thrips treatment?
🙋 have you ever had peonies bloom twice in a season? And if so, how do you get them to do that? Tia for answering 🙂 Buffalo NY

Thank you, Kelly, for all your tips and advice on my favorite flowers. Lol @ your beer in the flower fridge😁🍺
You are welcome , I’m just glad it wasn’t a case of beer that got caught on film 😃
@@KellyLehman lol that would make it a party 🍺🥳🏵 also I forgot to say I'm from Minnesota.
Virginia:D
Love the video …. Mine always have ants on them… how do you get the ants off without using water?
I usually just knock them to the ground by shaking the blooms close to the dirt .
You’re sweet! I really like your style and absolutely love Lucy!!
What other flowers can this be done with?
Can you keep them with shorter stems? for my arrangement i need only 5 in stems
