Herbaceous peonies usually require some kind of support, while intersectional and shrub-like tree peonies can often manage without it.

Getting into the habit of adding your peony plant supports before your plant even start to grow will make it much easier to keep the flowers from flopping every spring. However, when the rain comes down, peonies all across the city start flopping down. They just can’t handle the weight of the water. Be sure to keep the wire ends towards the inside of the ring when finishing up the wrapping. This will help prevent snagging on them once placed in the garden.

Peonies tend to be dramatic, flopping over just as they reach their peak blooms. To stop this from happening, you need to place peony supports before they get too big. Delivery is Mainland UK and excludes The Highlands and Isle of Wight, Isle of man and Channel Islands. You can often see them in my Secret Garden tour videos. I just would place a 4-inch terra-cotta pot over the legs at the top for decorative purposes. I have about eight plants around my yard, all providing various shades of pink flowers in the spring. They don’t all bloom at the same time, so when they’re in season, I get to enjoy freshly cut peonies in vases for a few weeks. However, if I just paid a little more attention in the early spring, I’d also get to enjoy them in the garden for longer. Peony blooms are heavy. Without some type of support system, they’ll open and then all it takes is one heavy spring rain or especially gusty day and they flop over.
