Looking to enhance your peony blooms next season? The perfect time to cut back herbaceous peonies—after the first frost and once the leaves begin to yellow. Proper pruning encourages healthy regrowth, reduces disease risk, and prepares your garden for a spectacular spring bloom.
Why it matters:
- Removes disease-prone foliage like powdery mildew
- Shifts energy toward next season’s blooms
- Keeps your peony plants in good shape
Pro Tip: Tree peonies need less pruning—just remove dry branches and spent flowers!
What You’ll Need: Sharp and clean pruning shears, gloves, disinfectant, and a sharp eye for dying leaves.
Avoid common mistakes: Don’t prune prematurely, and always disinfect your tools after each plant.
