The planting and overwintering management of peony flowers need to pay attention to the following aspects:
Peony is suitable for planting in fertile, well-drained soil, and the soil should be turned deep and plenty of organic fertilizer should be applied before planting. Choose healthy, pest-free peony seedlings, plant them in prepared soil, cover them with soil compaction, and then water them appropriately. Keep the soil moist after planting and give proper sunlight and ventilation.
The overwintering management of peony flowers mainly includes cold protection, pruning, fertilization and pest control.
Cold-proof: Peony flowers have a certain degree of cold resistance, but care should also be taken to prevent frost damage. In the cold regions of the north, warm materials such as straw and leaves can be covered around the plant to prevent frostbite. In the southern region, peony flowers can be placed indoors or in greenhouses to keep the temperature above 0 to avoid frost damage.
Pruning: In winter, you can prune the peony flowers properly, prune the yellow, diseased branches, and keep the plants tidy. When pruning, avoid over-pruning so as not to affect the growth and flowering of the coming year.
Fertilization: In winter, some well-rotted organic fertilizer can be applied to peony flowers to provide sufficient nutrients to promote growth and flowering in the coming year. But be careful not to over-fertilize to avoid fertilizer damage.
Pest control: Winter is an important period for peony pest control. Peony plants should be inspected regularly, and prevention and control measures should be taken in time when pests and diseases are found. Biological control, chemical control and other methods can be used to control pests and diseases.
In general, the cultivation and overwintering management of peony flowers requires attention to detail and patient management. Proper adjustment and management according to the specific situation can allow the peony flower to grow healthily and produce beautiful flowers.
