Plant Information
Top Tips
Be careful not to overwater newly planted Peonies, especially those that have been planted into decorative pots rather than the ground. They are best kept slightly on the dry side!
Care Guide
- Despite the myths that surround them, peonies are easy to grow.
- They need plenty of water as long as they don't get waterlogged, so plant your peonies in soil that drains well. Clay is fine as long as it doesn't stay wet.
- Peonies flower at their best in full sun, but they will tolerate light shade.
- Feed with a general fertiliser in spring, but avoid over-feeding with high nitrogen fertilisers.
- To conserve moisture and suppress weeds, mulch around the crown with 5-7.5cm (2-3in) organic matter. Avoid covering the crown itself.
- The flower stems may not be strong enough to keep the often-heavy flamboyant flowers upright and staking is often required.
- It is generally best to cut the foliage to ground level as it dies back in the autumn to reduce risk of peony wilt.
- Peonies seldom need to be divided or moved, but if necessary it should be carried out only in the autumn.

The last time I ordered and all the other times I ordered I had no problem getting my visa card recognised by your machine. This time, about half an hour ago I tried three or four times to order the discounted compost and was told my card was not recognised, try again. I did and was told the same thing. I am not good with computers and dont know if I have done something wrong or what but never had a problem before, could you try and find out and help me sort it out please, regards Frank.
Product:
Because I very rarely have problems with orders from garden bargains.

Plants arrived quickly and in good condition. Part of the order was missing, but was replaced with no quibbles and replacement plants arrived promptly. However the Peony plants had been replaced with bleeding hearts, so not what I ordered, but I decided to keep and plant them anyway. I will not know how they perform until next year as these plants are dormant for the summer months.
