How old before blooming? 5 Replies

How old does a peony need to be before blooming?  Just an eye planted grows a small plant and no flower the first year.  Can I expect any flowers the second year?Continue

Are there any peony varieties that can survive in zone 9?  We have cooler weather (70s to mid 80s) up until late March and sometimes into late April here in Florida.  Thank you!

Eleven peony plants! They must look wonderful when they bloom. Please post pictures when they do. I would love to see them!

I have 11 peony plants and they look very good this year, lots of buds. Some are only in their second year and others are 3 yrs in the ground.I've loved peonys since 1981, my neighbor had one white flowering plant that sat between our yards.  I now have a different house so I went a little nuts having 11 plants but I love watching those red stems come up in the spring.

Mary, those leaves do look like Peonies. It will be interesting to see if it blooms.

Janet, I don't feed mine either. It seems to do well without.

Can someone tell me if these are peony leaves? I've never had peonies before, but I had some bulbs that I planted in this pot about 3-4 years ago. Just a couple of months ago, these leaves came up. I'm not sure if they are peony leaves or weeds??? Should I just keep in the sun and see what happens? Thanks!

Years ago, I read that peonies don't need fertilizer so I never have fed them.  Do some of you feed yours?  If so, how do they do with that and do you use liquid or powder type plant food?

Got a healthy peony that's been living in the shade for a few years without really blooming. What a waste. Gonna move it to a sunny spot before blooming season while the ground is still cool and see what happens.

I'm pretty sure it wasent the depth I did research on that before planting them, thanks for the thoughts though, when I checked on them I just moved the dirt on top we have squirrels really really bad and they tend to eat my bulbs so I always check on them if I don't see growth after while. I hope your right and someone can give some more insight. And I just thought since it's so bot here maybe some extra shade would help, but Thanks :)for your infor!!
