Last fall (2017) I planted three each of two cultivars (Athena and Chalice) of very early-blooming herbaceous peonies from Adelman Peony Gardens.
In March (2018) I fertilized them with bulb fertilizer because of a past suggestion in the peonies forum by Karen
@kousa for this important step.
I am delighted to report that all six peony plants now have robust buds, so I am expecting flowers on all of these plants in their first spring in my garden!
I am very grateful to Adelman Peony Gardens for great plants and to Karen
@kousa for alerting me to the importance of applying bulb fertilizer to peonies in early spring.
