Peonies need fertilizing for lush flowering.

In this article, we will tell you how to properly fertilize flowers.

What and how to feed peonies

Peonies prefer well-cultivated loamy soils, with deep groundwater and a slightly acidic reaction environment.

Clay soils are improved by sanding, clay is added to sandy soils, and acidic soils are deoxidized.

At the planting stage, peonies need nitrogen-potassium fertilizers. During the budding period, fertilizers should contain nitrogen.

During the flowering period, you can also use potassium sulfide and superphosphate.

For foliar feeding, you need to take a solution with mineral fertilizer and spray the peony bushes with it according to the instructions.

You can also use ash as fertilizer.

It is best to carry out foliar feeding late in the evening or on a cloudy day.

Be careful, if you fertilize peonies too much, the bushes will have a lot of foliage and flower buds will not set.
