About PeoniesDubai

The peony is a flowering plant in the genus Paeonia .the only genus in the family Paeoniaceae. Peonies are native to Asia, Europe and Western North America.
Often fragrant flowers, in colors ranging from purple and pink to red, white or yellow, in late spring and early summer. The flowers have a short blooming season, usually only 7–10 days.

Start with a Better peony Plant

When you compare two peony plants side by side, it’s easy to see differences in quality. It takes less time for the larger root to develop into a strong plant that produces lots of flowers.

Plan for Success

Peonies are carefree plants and very easy to grow. Here are a few tips to help you get the best results.

Sun and Shade: Peonies are sun-lovers and perform best when they get at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. The more sun they get, the better they’ll bloom, so plant your peonies in the sunniest location possible.

Zone: Peonies are winter hardy in zones 3-8. They grow and flower best in areas with cold winters.

Soil: Most plants, including peonies, grow best in loose, fertile, well-drained soil. You can improve the quality of your soil by adding compost and all purpose fertilizer at planting time. Avoid planting in areas where the soil is soggy or compacted.

When to Plant: peonies may be planted in spring or fall. The plants can tolerate frost, so may be put into the ground 2 to 3 weeks before your frost free date. Potted peonies may be planted at any time during the growing season.

Planting Tips for Peonies Dubai

To ensure an abundant display of flowers, peonies should be grown in full sun. Though some varieties will tolerate partial shade, less light usually means fewer flowers.

Peonies should be planted in well-drained, fertile soil with a neutral to slight alkaline pH. Over time, they will develop a large root system and become difficult to move. Take time to site your peonies in a place where they can grow happily for many years. Once established, the plants are relatively drought resistant.

What to Expect from Peonies Dubai

All peonies flower in early summer, but the exact bloom time varies by cultivar. If you plant a combination of early, mid and late season bloomers, you can extend the peony season to a month or more. Peonies are ideal companions for other early summer perennials such as iris, alliums and roses. The foliage keeps borders looking full and provides a lush backdrop for other flowers.

Depending on the variety, most peonies are at least 3-feet tall and 3-feet wide at maturity. So it’s important to allow room for them to fill out. Surrounding peonies with a support cage will help keep the flowers upright. Use a ready-made peony support or fashion your own from wood slats or remesh/steel reinforcing wire. Supports should be put in place in early spring — before the plants are 12″ tall.

Peonies are carefree plants that are rarely troubled by pests or disease. It takes at least two to three years for a young peony plant to get established, but once it has settled in, it will bloom reliably year after year.

Peonies are fantastic cut flowers. They last for days in a vase and most varieties are fragrant. If you wish, peony stems may be cut in bud and stored for later. Cut the stems when the buds are in “marshmallow” stage. Wrap stems and buds snugly in paper and store them in a refrigerator for several weeks. When ready to display, bring the stems out into room temperature, recut the bottoms, and stand them in a vase with water. The buds will open after several days.
