Paeonia 'Eden's Perfume'

Peony eden is doing well. purchased as a bare root. Looking fwd to seeing this flower 🌸 💗

Mmm think may need to re pot first thing tomorrow.. I have some John innes 3 I used for my magnolias think need to mix some in the pot or may just take one out and put it in the front garden..?? Dilemmas???

You could just take some of the compost out from the existing pot and add John Innes 3 on top. I think the main thing with peonies is to make sure they're not buried too deep.

Thanks @ublaszko will sort them out in the morning do you think if I planted one in the garden it would be ok in this cold weather? 🤔

I've just read in an almanac that peonies are exceptionally hardy and grow well in the garden as long as they are not waterlogged. I'd add plenty of compost in the planting hole, just in case.

We have sandy soil which should hopefully suit these.. Need to just get them planted will add some John innes in the ground prior.. going to leave one in a pot . first job in the morning thanks Urszula @ublaszko 😊

No problem! I'm going to plant one in a pot and another in the garden as well.

My sister left her one for me think i will do the same 👏👌

Mine are now out in the snow @tina 😱 supposed to be winter Hardy and hopefully it's only snowing today may have to bring indoors?

New plants have arrived.. 😳 wish me luck

Good luck 😀

Good luck. I’ve got my two to get in but the grounds sodden. I’m not sure whether to plant them or not Di 🤔🤔

That's a plant ??? Think I will stick to veg .!!!

Jane I've been wondering the same as the grounds so damp. Thinking to myself if I dig a hole and fill with fresh compost wouldn't that be ok? I just dont know🤔 @pelly

😁@charlotte It's amazing what the roots become.

Did you get Peonies too Denise? @Denise16 🤔🤔

No I didn't Jane, I mean in general I wonder if I can get planting. Have lots of newbies to get in🤗 @pelly

I ordered two.. put them in pots for now.. Hope they will be ok? @pelly @Denise16 🤔

Bought from groupon £7.70 for two delivered from van mewen on their website £19.99 for two.. Hope mine grow the flowers look gorgeous 😍 @pelly @Denise16

Ah, yes I’m the same Denise, I’ve got a lot in the greenhouse ready to go in the ground. I usually put some compost in my planting holes anyway. I might see what it’s like tomorrow but it’s going to rain over night. @Denise16 🤔🤔

Apparently they don’t like being moved, that’s my worry Di @Di007 🤔🤔
