Great video! Noelle always explains plants so knowledgeably and eloquently. I love peonies! I’m looking forward to planting my first one this year 💓

This is my first attempt at planting peonies, I purchased five plants of Duchesse de Nemours as I read it was very fragrant. This video is most helpful as I'm new to the Midwest gardening climate and happy to add peonies to our new garden. 💚💐

Wonderful presentation Noelle! I planted one called “inspectuer Lavernge” (excuse my bad spelling) in 2022 and it has certainly grown. On the subject of its longevity of this plant, I have a neighbor across the street who has peonies that are 60+ years old and look absolutely gorgeous!

I've bought several this year is it a repeat bloomer?

Thank you for your video

Love em wish they bloomed longer

Great video but you didn’t follow through on what to do about the foliage after they are done blooming. I was waiting with bated breath for that 😂😂 💕🌸 thanks!

I have had 2 herbaceous peonies I started 2 years ago, still no blooms. They are in containers. Any ideas?

I grow all the groups of peonies. I would like to say do not cut your stem part on the root off your tree peonies. Cut the other foliage off in the spring for tree peonies. Cut all the foliage off your bush peonies in the fall. Bonny zone 5b
