Peony Plant FAQs

Choosing The Right Peonies For You!

Easy to grow and with a wide range of colors and styles, it can sometimes be difficult!

Because Peony plants are space-saving and tidy, which means you won't have to worry if you can't bring yourself to choose just one!

How Do You Care For Peony Plants?

Peonies prefer a sunny, well-drained location. They will tolerate some shade but bloom more prolifically in the sun. Peonies prefer to avoid competition in terms of moisture and nutrients with large trees or big shrubs. Giving them some wiggle room also provides them with much-needed air circulation to avoid powdery mildew.

They prefer a neutral soil pH, with a pH of 6.5 being optimum. Peonies are not heavy users of fertilizer. An application of a slow-release fertilizer every several years should be sufficient. Nature Hills offers a variety of Peonies.
