1. Light: the growth of Paeonia lactiflora is inseparable from sufficient light. If the environment is too dark, the plants will develop poorly and the flower buds will not differentiate. Usually put the plant in a place with the sun, but avoid the hot sun in summer, otherwise the leaves are easy to be burned. It can receive light all day in other seasons, especially in winter.

In order to increase its fertility, a little organic fertilizer can be added to the soil as the base fertilizer, which can also accelerate the growth and development of plants.
3. Watering: Paeonia lactiflora itself has certain drought resistance, and the demand for water is not great. Moreover, its fleshy root is afraid of being flooded. If it is watered more, it is easy to rot and die. Water volume shall be controlled during normal watering, and watering shall be carried out after the soil is dry.
4. Fertilization: peony is generally applied three times a year. The first time is from late March to early April, the second time is in late April, and the third time is until November. Manure is generally used as fertilizer. If it is domesticated, you can use some compound fertilizer, but pay attention to the dosage, so as not to burn the root with thick fertilizer.
