Culture Notes
When planting Paeonia, place the "eyes" of the roots between 1"-2" below the surface. Needs partial shade in hotter climates. Some of these plants that have heavy blooms may need staking to support the blooms. The buds of this plant attract ants, and it is thought that the ants help the buds open. Peonies should be planted in areas with good air circulation. However, established plants are best left undisturbed. Avoid watering overhead when the plants are setting buds. Removal of the lateral buds on the stem will allow the single flower to grow larger. Remove flower heads as soon as they start to fade. In autumn remove foliage to ground and destroy it. Do not compost this to prevent the spread of disease. When preparing the planting bed, incorporate equal amounts of composted oak leaf mulch and coarse sand to your soil. Some plants will want a small amount of lime added to the soil.
'Rubra Flora Plena' has deep red, double flowers and fernlike, deep green foliage.
