**Growing Instructions:**

  • 1. **Sunlight:** Chinese peonies thrive in full sun to partial shade. They typically require at least 6 hours of sunlight daily to produce abundant blooms.
  • 2. **Soil:** Well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal. Peonies are sensitive to waterlogged soil, so ensure good drainage.
  • 3. **Planting:** Plant peonies in the fall, allowing enough space between plants (3 to 4 feet) to accommodate their mature size.
  • 4. **Watering:** Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
  • 5. **Mulching:** Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and control weeds.
  • 6. **Support:** As peonies produce heavy blooms, it's often necessary to provide support for the stems to prevent them from bending or breaking.
  • 7. **Fertilization:** Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms.
  • 8. **Pruning:** Prune dead or damaged growth in the fall or early spring. Avoid cutting back healthy stems as peonies rely on their existing stems for next year's growth.
  • 9. **Pests and Diseases:** Watch for common pests like aphids and fungal diseases. Treat promptly if any issues arise.
  • 10. **Winter Care:** Provide a layer of winter mulch to protect the plant in colder climates.
