    We got our first start of peonies when I was a very small boy. I am now 67. These things last forever...and so gorgeous.

    I've had a 15ft oval full off peonies at the base of my flag poles for 15yrs. they are packed in pretty tight and I have built a white picket fence that is about 2ft tall all the way around the oval. this helps support the heavy flowers.

    • @autumnroberts3086
      @autumnroberts3086 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Stephanie Murray no. Peonies are grown bare / tubers. Don’t plant TOO deep otherwise it may not flowers. 1-2 inches of cover soil from the highest green leaf or “bloom” you see on the tuber / bare room . I would always choose getting a grown plant with visible blooms or buds at the big box store so you’re not waiting years possibly to see big luscious flowers.

      @@autumnroberts3086 Thank you for your reply. So if you cannot grow them from seed then how are they propogated ? through division ? or root cuttings ? I would like to fill my garden with them, I am moving house and have jsut had to dig up two plants and pot them, one has still decided to bloom, the other one has decided not too but the plant is still doing ok. I saw them for sale bare rooted in Amsterdam on a visit but they didn't look alive to me so I didn't buy them. Instead I bought 100 peony flower tulip bulbs but when they flowered it was a scam and they came up as the ordinary ones, still nice but hardly the point !! I hope that the garden center near my new house has some in stock. Best wishes from France xo

      keep tubers in a shallow pot burried in you garden. When the leaves have died completely dig out the pot and put entire pot with tubers undisturbed into the fridge for two weeks (temperature needs to be between 2-5 degrees Celsius). After two weeks of cooling holiday in the fridge plant the pot back in the garden for a wonderful spring flowers to enjoy. Repeat every year.

      I make cages from two inch x five inch spaced welded-fencing, cut about two feet tall to three tall. I cut a circular piece to fit on top for really tall stemed varieties. The cages last forever and look nice, and keep the blossoms straight.

    During a trip to the flower market in Amsterdam I saw huge crates of bare root peonies for sale at a good price but honestly they looked dead. I did buy 100 tulip bulbs that looked just like peonies when in bloom but when they came out they were just the ordinary kind ! NOT buying from them again !

      When you go outside to cut some flowers off, take a bucket or bowl of water with you. Cut the flower off the stem, and dip it's face in the bowl of water for a few minutes, gently shake the water (holding the flower upside down), the ants should fall right off. :)

      Tiffany Vu you cut when the flowers are barely open and not yet too soft from opening. This extends the vase time. You can speed up the bloom by trimming the end and putting it into warm water in your vase. A bucket of water really is the best way to remove ants.

    Beautiful video, except the speaker's high, strained voice, is having to compete with the high-pitched and very busy music. The music is telling one story, while the speaker is telling another one. It's like trying to process the speech of two women accustomed to talking over each other: a person ends up hearing nothing said by either one (while becoming extremely irritated).
