Here are some interesting tidbits about these amazing perennials.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Ten Fun Peony Facts<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>The peony is named after Paeon, a student of Asclepius, the Greek god of healing. Legend says that when Asclepias became jealous of his gifted student, Zeus saved Paeon from his jealous master by turning him into a beautiful flower.<\/li>\n<li>Peonies are native to Asia, southern Europe, and western North America.<\/li>\n<li>In China, the name for Peony is \u201cSho Yu,\u201d meaning \u201cMost Beautiful.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Peonies can live past 100 years and come in every color except blue and can grow as large as 10 inches!<\/li>\n<li>Peonies love cold winters and will even thrive as far north as Alaska.<\/li>\n<li>Peonies are the State Flower of Indiana.<\/li>\n<li>Partially cooked and sweetened petals of peony flowers are served as desserts in China.<\/li>\n<li>When Marco Polo first saw peonies, he called them \u201cRoses, as big as cabbages.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Peonies represent honor, prosperity, and good fortune.<\/li>\n<li>Ants love peony flowers. They eat the nectar that the buds produce. Garden lore says ants eat the waxy coating on the buds so the flowers will open, but this is a myth. The buds will open with or without help from the ants. However, to protect their nectar sources, the ants can fight off other insects that might damage the buds, so leave them alone.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 data-start=\"1350\" data-end=\"1629\"><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">How <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">to <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Plant <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Your <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Peonies<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To plant peony roots, dig a hole about two feet in diameter and mix in some compost\u2014our grower does not recommend manures at this stage.<\/p>\n<p>Plant the roots with the eyes covered only one to two inches deep.\u00a0\u00a0If you plant roots too deep, the plant will come up, but will not bloom well, if at all.\u00a0\u00a0Try to plant peonies in a spot where they can live for years because they resent being transplanted or moved.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1631\" data-end=\"1931\"><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Caring <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">for <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Your <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Peonies<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1631\" data-end=\"1931\">Feed peonies with a lower-nitrogen fertilizer (I use Bulb-tone) when the foliage begins to unfurl in the spring.\u00a0 Feed again, lightly, in late summer.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1631\" data-end=\"1931\">How to Prune Peonies<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1631\" data-end=\"1931\">Never remove peony foliage until it dies back on its own.\u00a0 It needs a chance to send all its energy to the roots for next year\u2019s flowers.\u00a0 To prevent any problems, keep the base of the peony plant free from debris, remove the leaves in the fall as soon as they die back, leaving a three-inch stem.\u00a0 Avoid overhead watering, if possible.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1933\" data-end=\"2112\"><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Ants <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Are <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Your <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Peony <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Friends<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1933\" data-end=\"2112\">Ants love peony flowers.\u00a0 They eat the nectar that the buds produce.\u00a0 Garden lore says that the ants eat the waxy coating on the buds so the flowers will open, but this is a myth.\u00a0 The buds will open with or without help from the ants.\u00a0 However, in order to protect their nectar sources, the ants fight off other insects that might damage the buds, so just leave them alone.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2114\" data-end=\"2312\"><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Get <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Your <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Peonies <\/span><span class=\"_fadeIn_m1hgl_8\">Now!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2114\" data-end=\"2312\">We just got in some freshly grown and dug LOCAL peony roots, so swing by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meadowsfarms.com\/hours-locations\/big-great-greenhouse-in-richmond-virginia\/\">The Great Big Greenhouse in Richmond, VA<\/a>, to grab yours while they last.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meadowsfarms.com\/great-big-greenhouse-gardening-blog\/\">To read more posts from Bonnie, visit our blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meadowsfarms.com\/hours-locations\/big-great-greenhouse-in-richmond-virginia\/\">Return to the Great Big Greenhouse homepage<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the spring, I sit on my deck and admire the peonies in the back of my yard.
