Want your peonies to bloom brighter next year? The perfect time to cut back herbaceous peonies—once frost has hit and once foliage turns yellow. Proper pruning encourages lush growth, prevents disease, and prepares your garden for a spectacular spring bloom.
Why it matters:
- Removes damaged foliage like powdery mildew
- Shifts energy toward next season’s blooms
- Keeps your peony plants in good shape
Pro Tip: Tree peonies require minimal cutting—just remove dead wood and spent flowers!
What You’ll Need: Sanitized pruning shears, gloves, disinfectant, and a sharp eye for unhealthy growth.
Avoid common mistakes: Don’t prune too early, and always disinfect your tools to prevent cross-contamination.
