In addition, before planting, we need to check the peony plant, check whether there are black patches, white mildew spots, broken roots and so on at the root. If we don't find any problems, we can plant normally.

Potting method

Treatment plant

First of all, clean the peony plant, put the root of Peony under the tap, and rinse the root. Then soak in disinfectant and rooting powder for 30 minutes. Because the root system of peony is long, it is better to use barreled water to let the root stretch and bubble. The next step is to prune the roots. Cut all the old roots and keep the new roots and thin heels. Cut off the long roots according to the size of the flowerpot.
