Peony flowers are beautiful and have the reputation of being the "King of Flowers," making them popular among many flower enthusiasts.
Peonies are also very suitable for growing as potted plants at home. Proper fertilization is essential for the growth of peonies, which can make the potted peonies grow well, bloom more, and have high ornamental value. I will share some simple tips with you below.
First, Basic Fertilizer PreparationFor indoor peony cultivation, basic fertilizer is very important, as the soil in potted plants is relatively little and needs sufficient nutrients to provide for the peonies.
When preparing the soil, you can add some basic fertilizer, such as cake fertilizer and manure, which can be mixed into the soil. You can also add basic fertilizer to the bottom of the pot when potting, which can provide long-term nutrient supply.
Second, Fertilizing Before BloomingPeonies are usually fertilized once in October to promote blooming, and blooming fertilizer has a significant effect on the growth of peonies.
You can also use fertilizer to promote the robust growth of peonies, mainly using decomposed cake fertilizer and increasing the application of phosphorus fertilizer, which can promote more and larger peony blooms.
Third, Fertilizing After BloomingPeonies consume a large amount of nutrients when blooming, and if you want to enjoy more peony flowers, you can increase fertilization.
Usually, fertilization can be done about half a month after blooming, which can extend the blooming period, increase the number of blooming flowers, and enhance the color of the flowers. Fertilization should mainly use decomposed cake fertilizer or compound fertilizer.
Fourth, Winter FertilizerPeonies should be fertilized once in winter. Winter fertilizer can increase the temperature of the soil, and when used in conjunction with watering, it can be very helpful for peonies to survive the winter. Organic fertilizer should be used. Move the peonies indoors around the time of the winter solstice and place them in a sunny spot on the balcony.
【Summary】
Fertilizing indoor peonies should include adding basic fertilizer when potting, fertilizing once before blooming, once after blooming, and once for winter. At least three fertilizations a year are needed to promote the growth of peony flowers, make the flowers more abundant, and ensure they are large and beautiful.
