The peony flower blossoms beautifully in this way in spring.

14. The key point of peony management in early spring-wiping buds

This is the 14th article of the blue demon's original column "Peony Culture".

After the peony seedlings are bought back, they will be planted in the spring of the following year, which is relatively worry-free and hardly needs to be managed.

But in the spring, when the peony sprouts, we need to pay attention to the timely sprouting. For the peony planted in the first year, it is suggested that only the terminal buds should be retained and all the lateral buds should be removed, which can concentrate nutrients and be beneficial to the rejuvenation of the plant.

Newly cultivated peonies usually take 2-3 years to recover. After rejuvenation, the sprouts can be sprouted according to the health of the plants in early spring.

Potted peony flowers, due to limited nutrients, in order to make peony flowers bloom, generally retain only 3-5 branches, no more than 7 branches, the specific number of branches can be determined according to the size of the flowerpot used.

Sufficient fertilizer and water, large room for peony growth, can moderately leave a few more branches.

Peony planted in the ground can retain the number of branches according to the sturdiness of the plant. Of course, it doesn't matter if you let it go.

The method of sprouting tree peony in early spring

Erase foot buds

For the newly planted peony seedlings, if they are in the recovery stage, the foot buds will be removed, because once the foot buds grow, they will consume a lot of nutrients, which is not conducive to the rejuvenation of peonies.

For peonies that have been planted for many years, according to the situation of the branches, if you need to cultivate new buds to replace the old branches, you can choose to retain the strong foot buds and break off the rest of the foot buds.

Erase lateral buds

The newly planted peony should erase all the lateral buds and retain only the terminal buds, while the peonies planted for many years should retain 1-2 lateral buds according to the robust degree of the plant.

If the branches grow well and the branches grow healthily, 1-2 lateral buds can be retained on each branch, while for weaker branches, only 1 lateral bud or no lateral bud can be retained.

When wiping buds, we must pay attention to keep the outward bud points, so that the new branches grow outward, if you leave the inside bud points, the new branches grow to the inside of the plant, which is not conducive to the plant type.

The above is about the simple operation of wiping buds on peonies in early spring. after a period of time after wiping buds, peony flowers will grow buds, and after peony buds grow to a certain size, we also need to sparse buds so as not to bloom too many flowers.
