At the location chosen for planting, a rather large hole should be dug. Its dimensions for one bush are half a meter in diameter and depth. Further, the hole is filled with a fertile mixture by two-thirds. Components of the mixture: humus, peat, sand, garden soil, about a bucket of each ingredient.
Next, fertilizers are laid. It can be 0.5 kg of superphosphate or 1 kg of bone meal, a spoonful of ferrous sulfate and about a liter of ash in a container. We fill the hole with the fertilized mixture to the end. Of course, it is best to prepare the planting hole ahead of time, while the soil has time to shrink.
Summer is most favorable for planting peonies, namely August. Before the cold weather arrives, the plant will have time to take root and take root.
It is best to plant peonies in cuttings. The most suitable delenki are those selected from a bush for 4-5 years. Beginning florists should be warned. You should not take a cut with an abundance of kidneys or the largest. When a plant is divided, its roots are damaged and can no longer fulfill their functions to ensure the life of the plant in full. It will wither and may not give flowers.
In the prepared hole, the cut is placed so that the kidney at the top is only slightly covered with the mixture. Next, water the seedling. A lot of water is needed, one and a half buckets for one seedling will be sufficient. After the earth has shrunk, the bush is re-sprinkled. In this case, the last bud should be deepened by 5-6 cm. If the bud is sunk into the ground to a great depth, then the peony can give small flowers or not bloom at all.
Although planting a peony is not easy, because it takes time, but it will grow in this place for a very long time, about 20 years. The bush does not require transplantation. If you take care of it correctly, then the bush will delight you for a long time, decorate the garden and smell with a delicate aroma.
