Different yellow Tree Peony close up

I love Tree-Peony! I don't see it here very often. They need too much cold to set it to flower. Although, not as much cold as the herbaceous ones which cannot grow here.

Such a shame you can't grow them over there I have 4 tree peony red white 2 different yellow ones. I have the herbaceous ones too which are in bud at present . Strange the herbaceous ones won't grow over there but as you say they need the cold. They dont like being moved .

Peonies need a lot of chilling hours. Unfortunately, with our mild to warm winters Peonies high-chilling hours cannot be accomplished here.

That's a shame you have nt the chill factor weather over there but then if you did you could nt grow your exotic plants thats the down fall. Perhaps you should get a walk in freezer to give it the chill factor lol

Here is my Redish tree peony.

Yes, I need a freezer to put them into...LOL!

lol defiently if you got a big one you could plant in pots and just place the whole pot in . I have another softer yellow one on my photos bigger than this one its about 4ft tall and about 4ft width like the red one only the red/purple one is nt as wide.
