Why Your Peony Won't Bloom: Sunlight, Fertilizer, and Transplant Patience

Non-Flowering Peony Troubleshooting

• Sun: Needs 6+ hours direct sun.
• Fertilizer: Stop high-N feeds. Use low-N, high-P/K (e.g., 5-10-10).
• Recent move: If transplanted within 2–3 years, bloom delay is normal.
• Depth: Eyes (buds) must be 1–2 inches below soil surface.

Peonies are long-lived, drought-tolerant, and rarely need division. Correct the above, and flowers will come.
