1. Paeonia lactiflora mainly propagates by the method of division, that is to say, when to divide, when to plant.That for the division, there is such an old saying, called "the Spring Equinox Paeonia lactiflora, to the old flower", that is to say, spring must not be planted separately.
2. The best planting period is from the beginning of September to the end of October. At this time, the ground temperature is higher than the air temperature, which is conducive to the healing of the wound and the germination of new roots. If the plant division is too early, the peony can germinate and come out of the ground in the same year. If the plant division is too late, the peony can not germinate new roots.
1. Plant division: When plant division, dig out the whole peony with a shovel, observe the root system of the peony, shovel with a shovel along the natural texture of the root system of the peony, ensure that each clump has at least 2-5 buds, then smear plant ash on the wound, and put it in a cool and ventilated place to air.
2. Planting: After the wound is thoroughly air-dried, according to the original planting depth, re-bury the fleshy root system after the division into the soil, compact the soil, irrigate the root fixing water once after planting, and then do not need to take care of it again. When the next spring is warm, the peony can send out new buds and blossom in late spring and early summer!
In addition to division, peony can also be propagated by sowing, usually peony seeds mature in August, after the seeds mature, they can be harvested and sowed, or dried in the shade and stored in sand, and sowed in the middle and late September.But it is easy to atavism, double petal become single petal.
