September and October are the best seasons for peony transplanting. Due to the high temperature in the south, it can be postponed for a while, while due to the temperature change in the cold area in the north, it can be appropriately advanced. Generally, transplanting should be completed before zero, and cold prevention measures should be taken in severe cold area, so as to make peony spend winter safely. After the time, place and temperature are all available, we can start the transplantation.
When transplanting in normal autumn, select the strong stems of plants and seedlings without diseases and insect pests, plant them in the soil, and then carry out normal management. However, when transplanting in anti season, not only the selection of seedlings is strictly required, but also the soil ball should be kept, in order to preserve the water supply of roots, so as to improve the survival rate. Even soil with the ball planted in the soil, the best basin soil size in the diameter of about 50 cm, water and put in the ventilation of no direct light, regular water spray to the leaves.
It should be noted that most peonies do not need to be pruned when transplanting. They are usually pruned before and after the Qingming Festival. But if your peony has dead branches, you can clean them up a little. This spring pruning, cutting off some of its stumps, leaving only 6 - 8 strong branches, each of which leaves a flower bud, which is conducive to its next year's flowering.
