Growing Instructions for Zone 3b

Peonies are extremely hardy and thrive in colder climates, making them well suited for Zone 3b gardens.

Planting Time
Plant peony roots in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked or in early fall before the ground freezes.

Location
Choose a location with full sun (6+ hours daily) and well-drained, fertile soil. Peonies prefer a permanent location where they can grow undisturbed for many years.

Planting Depth

• Dig a hole large enough to spread the roots comfortably.
• Position the root so the eyes (buds) are about 1–2 inches below the soil surface.
• Cover lightly with soil and water thoroughly.

Spacing
Space plants 30–36 inches apart to allow room for mature growth and good air circulation.

Watering
Water well after planting and keep soil evenly moist during the growing season, especially while plants are establishing.

Fertilizing
Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring when new shoots appear to encourage strong growth and blooming.

Support
Large peony blooms may benefit from plant supports or rings to keep stems upright during flowering.

Winter Care in Zone 3b

• Peonies are extremely winter hardy and remain in the ground year-round.
• After the first frost, cut stems back to ground level and remove old foliage.
• Apply a light layer of mulch if desired for winter protection.

With proper care, Peony Mix plants will reward gardeners with magnificent blooms year after year, bringing classic beauty, fragrance, and elegance to spring gardens.
