Home > Question >

Why does my peony produce lots of leaves but no flowers?


Our Advice:

The most common mistake is to plant them too deeply. You should always be able to see some of the tuberous rootstock on the surface of the soil. You could try digging it up and replanting it (shallowly) in a more sunny position.
