Peonies may only have a fleeting period of flowering, but they are highly anticipated by many gardeners and are one of the crowning moments of late spring or early summer. The big, blousy blooms may be on show for just a few weeks, yet peonies require lots of TLC to keep them performing.
There can be jobs for all seasons when you grow peonies, and in the fall there are some key care and maintenance tasks you can do. The plants need cutting back and mulching to keep them healthy, while the fall also offers the ideal opportunity to move or divide peonies in your garden.
