Pruning methods of peony flowers after spring How to prune peony flowers after spring?

In early spring, peony flowers will wake up from dormancy and gradually transition to growth period. At this time, check the buds on the branches, and only the top 2~3 buds can be removed. In addition, check whether the roots grow new buds and dig them out in time.

2. Prune the flowers after they wither

After the peony flowering period, all the petals and dead leaves should be removed, which can reduce the consumption of nutrients in the basin and is conducive to the division of flower buds. When the flower bud differentiation is obvious, only the buds on both sides of the branch are kept, and all the buds at the top are cut off.

Step 3 prune before winter

In winter, plants have just entered dormancy, and pruning is the best time at this time. Cut off all the overlapping branches, cross branches, pests and diseases on the plants, and shorten the twigs to promote their rejuvenation. For overgrown branches, short cutting can reduce nutrient consumption.
