What season does the peony flower bloom?
Let's talk about the blooming season of peonies and share some small experiences in plant cultivation to understand the flowering period of peonies. Let's learn about it together.
With the arrival of spring, many flower enthusiasts start preparing to buy flowers. The temperature of spring is just right for raising flowers, but some flowers are not suitable for spring care. We must pay attention to several types of flowers when buying them. Although they can bloom beautiful flowers in spring, they are not suitable for planting in spring. Flower enthusiasts should remember this.
1. Peony
The blooming period of peonies usually starts in April. When peonies bloom, they are bright and beautiful, dignified and luxurious, looking very splendid. Since ancient times, many scholars and literati have also written about peonies in poems and articles. "Only the peony has the true national color, and when it blooms, it moves the capital" has been passed down to this day. Although peonies bloom in spring, they are not suitable for planting in spring. Why is that?
Because peonies start to bloom in April and start to sprout around March. If flower enthusiasts want to see the flowers normally, they must plant the peony tubers before the year. The root of the peony flower also needs to meet a requirement to sprout normally, which is to be frozen between 1-10 degrees Celsius for about two months, so its buds can grow normally.
If there is no step of low-temperature vernalization, it is difficult for the flowers to bloom. Overall, peonies are very cold-resistant, and if you want to make them bloom faster, you have to freeze them.

2. Tulip
Tulips are the national flower of the Netherlands. They look very elegant after blooming and usually bloom in April. However, tulips are also not suitable for spring care because the tulips in spring bloom after being vernalized in low temperatures. They have to experience a lower temperature environment than peonies, generally in an environment of around 0 degrees Celsius for three months.
If flower enthusiasts want tulips to bloom normally, they must plant the bulbs directly into the soil around October of the previous year, so that the tulips can meet the condition of "freezing" for three months. When spring comes, the bulbs will slowly take root and sprout.
3. Iris
Iris is also the protagonist of spring. After the iris blooms, it is covered with sapphire blue, and some are purple. Some flower enthusiasts are very fond of this blue and purple flower. However, iris is not suitable for buying and planting in the soil in spring.
