Planting and Growing Information

Plant Shirley Temple peonies in early to mid-autumn for best establishment, positioning the eyes (buds) approximately 2 inches below soil level. These adaptable perennials thrive in USDA zones 3-8 in locations receiving full sun to partial shade. They prefer rich, well-drained soil with consistent moisture but established plants show good drought tolerance. Flowering occurs from late spring to early summer, with each plant producing multiple blooms over a 2-3 week period. Cut back foliage to ground level in fall after it yellows for best spring performance.
