Dig up the root ball, select healthy roots, and divide them into clumps containing 3–5 new shoots. It is best to plant the separated roots immediately in a cool location.

Cultivation Method

Peonies thrive in well-drained soil with plenty of sunlight. It is advisable to mix sufficient organic fertilizer into the soil before planting.

Important Pests and Diseases & Control Methods

While peonies are relatively resistant to pests and diseases, issues such as powdery mildew, gray mold, and spider mites may occur. To prevent powdery mildew, ensure good ventilation around the plant and avoid watering. For gray mold, remove infected parts and control it using an appropriate fungicide. For spider mites, observe the plant regularly, and pyrithrin-based insecticides can be used.

Regular observation and proper care are essential to keep the crop healthy.
