  • Peony sulking?

    I moved a peony from my back garden to my front garden two years ago. I read that they don't flower the first year after being moved so I didn't expect flowers last year. The buds did form but never opened into flowers. This year the same thing happened, plenty of buds but no flowers. Will it produce flowers eventually?

    Did you see the last Gardeners world as it had a piece about Peonys I cant remember what it said something about how deep to plant em, perhaps you could find it on I player..

      I think you don't have to plant them too deep. I have a couple that I re-planted not too deeply and they are doing fine and, believe me, I don't fuss over my plants

        I moved one, and divided it into two, for a customer, last autumn.

        Just to upset you, both have flowered, one last week, the other this week.

        Gimme a few mins and I'll get the pics off my phone...

          If it's any help they're in fairly dry soil, not too much sun, and not too much in the way of nutrient either, and only shallowly planted. I'm certainly no expert, but I've moved them successfully before, so maybe I just have a knack. Good luck with yours.

          Here ya go;
