From bud to flower Tree Peony

Pretty with the purple tinge in the centre.

Thank you Siris trouble when I but from super stores they have labels but no name attached.

thats early ... I took the plunge last year and cut the two I have had for over 20 years right back to the ground as soon as the leaves dropped off they had gone too leggy and weak ..... they have both bounced back but no flowers which is to be expected...
But I do have Rokii with a good six buds on ... wont be long

so many photos 3p I am trying to catch up

Gg

Yes its always busy about this time for so many pictures . I dont put half of my photos on.

Thats great you ve still have Rokii with buds shame the others did nt reflower they will on time I am sure. I was thinking of doing the same my self one of my yellow ones has three stems I ve read to only have one stem and to chop off the rest but which one lol. This one is on the sunny side of my garden perhaps that's why my others are still in bud.

Morning 3p ,

I have tried in the past to just cut a few stems off and leave the rest but you dont get the strength of the fresh growth evenly ..... but I do understand why as if you leave some you should get flowers ....

Morning Gnarly gnome yes thats what I was fearing I shall leave some on as you say thank you. I am just putting a photo on for you to show you how big this Peony tree is .
