@bumplbea I've been reading.... and a few have given advise. A nursery that grows them recommend a fertilizer called *Pro-Grow Organic. I am not sure that I will try that yet. A gardener from another group said her sister used it and it worked wonderfully, making strong stems and 15'ish blooms. (that's why I went looking) It's a 5-3-4 formula. Much I've read says they like it low on the N, higher on the P and no mention of potassium. Or I may try a bit of compost in late winter and the suggestion of a handful of bonemeal around each base when they are about a foot tall.
I will be trying one or the other for sure, my soil is rather lacking as it grows very large pines.
I've also decided not to stress on finding the names of my noids. I came to this conclusion because I bought 25 Rockii tree peony seeds
from the nursery that recommends the pro grow.. it's made by *North Country Organics. These seeds will of course~ be crosses without names........ so, yeah.
Tree peony do take 4-5 years to bloom from seeds. But it just sounds like good fun and an exciting surprise to wait for. They grow many tree form on the property and the crosses could be amazing, at least to me.
I'm going to leave their info here in case anyone else would be interested in checking out their peony or other products.
The 25 seeds cost $20 + 6 for shipping, I feel this is a good deal considering what could come from my investment.

I'll always look for a match and name for my peony.... but now wonder... is that double a cross?
