Growing & Maintenance Tips for Paeonia lactiflora 'Bouquet Perfect'
Enjoys full sun to part shade in rich, well-drained soils. Grows best in full sun, but tolerant of light afternoon shade. Staking may be required as the flowers bloom and heavy rains may drive them to the ground. Peonies do not respond well to transplanting. Best timing to plant in the ground is early fall to give the plants time to establish. After planting, may take up to two years to produce blooms. Peonies are considered to be relatively pest free.
