The living habits of Paeonia lactiflora

Paeonia lactiflora is a typical temperate plant, which likes temperature and cold tolerance, has a wide range of ecological adaptation, and has strong cold tolerance. It is suitable for cool climate in summer, but it is also quite heat-resistant. The extreme maximum temperature in summer is up to 42.1 ℃, and it can pass the summer safely. In the growing period, Paeonia lactiflora can grow luxuriantly and have bright flowers; Paeonia lactiflora is a deep-rooted plant, so it requires deep soil layer and strong fleshy roots, which is suitable for sandy loam with loose and good drainage, and grows poorly in clay and sandy soil. high soil water content, poor drainage, easy to cause rotten roots, neutral or slightly acidic soil is suitable, saline-alkali land is not suitable for planting.

The growth of fertile soil is better, but we should pay attention to the nitrogen content should not be too high, in order to prevent the growth of branches and leaves, the growth period can be appropriate to increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, in order to promote branches and leaves to grow strong and bloom beautifully. Paeonia lactiflora has a high and open terrain and a relatively dry environment, which does not require regular irrigation. Because peony is fleshy root, especially not resistant to waterlogging, stagnant water for 6-10 hours, often lead to rotten roots, low humid areas are not suitable to be used as peony producing areas in our country, every flood is almost destructive to peony, only in the high open place, the unflooded peony remained.
