Generally, it takes about 20 days to take root, and it can be watered after rooting. Before rooting, it is normal for the leaves at the bottom to dry and atrophy. The root system grows well, and water absorption is sufficient to regret the natural recovery. The soil should not be too wet, otherwise the cuts will turn yellow and rot easily.

3. Improper fertilization

Excessive fertilization here refers to frequent fertilization, but does not cause fertilizer damage. The root absorbs nutrients and transports them to the leaves and stems to promote their growth. There seems to be nothing wrong with this, but the collocation of elements in fertilization has a lot to do with the growth of the plant. When applying fertilizer, more nitrogen fertilizer will stimulate the growth of leaves.

What if white peony grows in vain?

1. Mild overgrowth

Mild overgrowth means that there is a slight elongation between the stem nodes, but it is not very ugly, which can be saved. Put the white peony in the sun, bask in the sun, properly control the water, suspend fertilization, and slowly recover after a period of time.

2. Serious overgrowth

If the white peony has grown beyond recognition, I am sorry, can only be re-cutting propagation. Take off the extra leaves of the stem node and cut off the head. If you save it properly, you will get N pots of white peony.
