That peony came with the house. I don’t know why but it bloomed well though heavily shaded. For a few years, that is. Then it stopped blooming so I replanted it. No blooms last year but it’s sprouting well this year.
I know nothing about this stuff so I’m just guessing at what might work.
get a book or do online research about them. They are a little unique in their needs to bloom. I know the ants are a factor.
If the global warming idiots try to use this as an argument for their destructive plans to our economy, the counter would be that they told us it was all human activity that caused it.
It was the sun all along and all we humans can do is react to Mother Nature.
Peonies usually don’t bloom until the second or third year after being transplanted. The need to re-establish their root system before they’re able to bloom.
