Unfortunately, boundless love for peonies is not enough for them to bloom profusely.
Below you will find the most common reasons why the long-awaited flowering of peonies never occurs, which were discussed by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
1. You probably chose the wrong place to plant peonies, depriving them of sun and space.
2. The lack of flowering may also be due to a lack of moisture. To prevent moisture from evaporating from the soil too quickly, be sure to mulch the flower bed.
3. If you made mistakes in planting/replanting the plant, you should not expect flowering either.
This happens when a small part of the root was taken - the plant will at least not bloom, and at most - die.
4. Sometimes inexperienced gardeners immediately cut off flowers and greenery after flowering - in such a situation, the plants may no longer open their buds.
5. Finally, it is worth taking into account the age of the plant - old bushes will bloom less and less each year.
