Planting and Growing Information

Plant 'Catharina Fontijn' bare roots in fall or early spring, positioning the eyes (buds) just 1-2 inches below soil level in well-drained, fertile soil.

Blooming in late spring to early summer (early mid-season), these peonies require minimal maintenance once established.
