Already in winter, summer residents think about the scope of work for spring and summer, so that everything in the garden and vegetable garden blooms and smells good.
Peonies will delight you with their blossoms only under one condition. In spring, the plants need to be fed. Otherwise, you will have to be content with green bushes.
Experienced gardeners recommend monitoring the weather at the beginning of spring and acting as early as possible. As soon as the sun warms up, the snow melts, and the plants come to life, you can add the nutrient composition.
The later you do it, the less effective it is. In the early stages, feeding plays a huge role for peonies.
The plant's roots grow intensively in spring. We are not talking about the rhizome itself, but about the absorbing roots.
Therefore, experienced gardeners recommend applying the first fertilizer when the soil temperature is about +10 °C. Any mineral complex is used.
The result of the work will be the active development of the root system, which will ultimately lead to active flowering of peonies.
