Want your peonies to bloom brighter next year? Autumn is the ideal season to cut back garden peonies—after the first frost and once foliage turns yellow. Proper pruning promotes lush growth, prevents disease, and sets the stage 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 healthy and shapely
Pro Tip: Tree peonies benefit from light trimming—just remove dead wood and spent flowers!
What You’ll Need: Clean pruning shears, gloves, disinfectant, and a sharp eye for dying leaves.
Avoid common mistakes: Don’t prune too early, and always disinfect your tools between plants.
