Paeonia x suffruticosa

Purple peony tree will be open soon

@usgardentags @teamgardentags I just tried to post a new photo of my tree peony that has opened. Funny tried posting it 10 times. Still failing to due to time out issue. Your app has been on time out for years!

Thank you for letting us know.

Two of the 5 blooms on my peony tree.

My peony tree is doing well.

Peony tree is doing well. Last year only one flower. Might be 5 this year.

I have something similar coming up I haven’t the slightest clue what it is

My peony tree is starting to come back to life.

I think mine is still under a few inches of snow, but I needed the reminder to check on mine! Thanks! 😘

There maybe only one flower on the tree it’s first year in my garden. But that one flower is as big as my hand, 6 inches. And it is still opening. Can’t wait to see it fully open!

Wow, the color is so deep!

Wow what a belter.....💜

Fabulous colour 👌

@ambitiouswolf Wow what a beauty 😍💟💜💟💜💟💜💟

😍😍I love that color💜

Mine havent bloomed yet they are setting up though. I have some new varities this year but iv never seen that gorgeus purple. Congrats on that beauty!

That's fantastic. Imagine it in years to come, full of flowers like that! 😍

Everyday is a step closer.

Beautiful 😉

Not long now, looking like tomorrow

Gorgeous...mine are pathetically slow this year 😏

Opening up

Gorgeous plant 🌱

Will be opening soon. Blossom is over 2 inches right now.

This is definitely on my wishlist, so beautiful

Flower is starting to peek out 😁

It’s coming. The ants have moved in on mine in the last couple of days so they’ll be out soon!

Still just one bud forming right on top like a crown 👑. The leaves are doing good.

Can peonies be grown in planters?

@wvande Yes you can. But they have large root systems so you need big and deep pots. And make sure it has the drainage holes in the pot.

This is my first spring with the tree peony. It appears to be forming a bloom already

Exciting 😀💜

So I removed the ones growing up from the ground . They just didn’t look like the ones on the tree. And I mounded up soil much higher. So it can self root.

I know tree peonies are grafted. I think the part growing from the ground to the left might be from the grafted part. The leaves look different then on the tree.

I just read what I need to do. Cut the grafted growth down below the dirt. Then add more soil up higher around it. Tree peonies will grow their own roots. But mine is not deep enough.

Fabulous! I bought one a couple of weeks ago 💜🤞🏻

@telswirld what color did you get?

Actually I bought 2 🙊 a mauve & an orange 😉 they were £5 in Morrison’s 💁🏻‍♀️

Sorry Katie Just realised you live in USA so won’t know that Morrison’s is a supermarket 😉🙄😁

@telswirld I would love to see them when they bloom

👍🏻 Do yo have any advise ... Someone said they take a couple of years until they flower 🤔

@telswirld what size are yours? Do you have pics of them?

I’ll take a photo tomorrow 👍🏻😉

Peony tree is coming back. 😁

Finally got my peony tree planted. Today is a great day to work outside. Sun is under clouds keeping it fro getting to hot. We should have storms later. Trying to get as much planted as I can in the cool 😎 temps.

Enjoy your day! ⛅

Flower starting to open

One of the blooms that is forming on my purple peony tree.

This is the tree peony I bought. It is purple like the one I took a pic of at the nursery. This tree had more growth.

Love it, although it's only in flower for a short period they put on a hell of a show.
