24. Finally looking forward to the peony blooming, but it doesn't seem quite right, the flowers are small and thin!

This is an excerpt from the original column "Peony Culture" written by the Blue Devil.

The blue demon planted an island brocade peony last autumn, but it blossoms in spring. There is no brocade of island brocade at all.

Later, when communicating with flower friends, I found that many flower friends said that they did not produce peonies in the first year, while some flower friends said that their peony flowers were small, their petals were very thin, and they were not big and full like other people's flowers at all.

Then why is there such a problem? Let's analyze the reasons for this.

First of all, peonies with small flowers and thin petals are mostly newly transplanted peonies, and peonies planted for many years will not have such a problem. In addition, potted peonies are more likely to have such problems.

This needs to take into account the rejuvenation of peonies. We know that peony is transplanted with bare roots, which means that the roots are hurt, and the root system is damaged, which will naturally affect the growth of peony plants.

As it has just been transplanted, the root system is not very good, and peony sprouting and flowering needs to consume a lot of nutrients, which will inevitably lead to insufficient nutrients.

Even if we have base fertilizer and topdressing, because peony means to sprout and blossom in spring, it does not grow roots until autumn, and the roots of newly planted peonies are not developed and the absorption of fertilizer is limited, so it is easy to cause insufficient nutrition and small flowering.

In particular, some flower friends are not willing to sparse buds, grow a few buds to open more, the only nutrients are more scattered, natural flowering petals thin.

For varieties like Island brocade, it is difficult to play normally, resulting in the phenomenon of non-brocade.

So the blue demon advises all flower friends that peonies planted in the first year should not bloom as far as possible, or it is best to open only one or two flowers, so as not to cause nutrient dispersion and thin petals, and at the same time avoid excessive consumption, which is likely to fail to blossom in the second year.

When the performance of our peony is not very good in the first year, there is no need to panic, as long as we do a good job of management, timely fertilization, pruning, reasonable watering to prevent diseases and insect pests, create good growth conditions for peony, and promote its rejuvenation as soon as possible.

However, we should also be careful not to overmanage, especially in autumn, if the peony has too much water, it will cause the peony to grow in autumn and cannot blossom in spring. So how to deal with the problem of Qiufa? Welcome to continue to follow tomorrow's update.
