lactiflora peonies This type is characterized by belonging to the group of herbaceous plants, so after flowering yy surface lose their leaves are dried, are removed and the tubers or fleshy roots almost flush soil. Here in this link from my personal gallery can watch track my peonies .. Can see that there were some flower buds and repented, that flourished was the only white, but not compared with that purchase .... at in order.,
If you want or who may be interested in the topic dedjar your comments in my gallery below or here on the blog:) All comments is welcome as well as criticism.
fleshy roots
fleshy roots plants nutrient reserves stored in the fleshy roots.
Both peonies and daylilies can be propagated division. The groups roots of peonies should be divided in the fall and must leave at least three crowns of buds in each group.
The yellow lily has a fleshy root system and some varieties have a system that can be considered a metaphor rhizome root system. Daylilies are herbaceous strong perennial growth habit. Have soft leaves bright green, in groups, which are dry during the winter.
Fertilization
Both bulbs spring and summer the need phosphorus to promote root development . You phosphorus applied to the soil once it moves very little. Some bulbs are planted at a depth of 6 to 8 inches. The land beneath the place where you place the bulbs will be mixed with phosphorus so that the roots can then absorb. Mix bonemeal or superphosphate with soil at the bottom of the bed during preparation.
If plants are to stay in a bed for over a year, we recommend adding more fertilizer. "I did not do it
The land where grow bulbs that bloom in spring should be mixed in the fall with five tablespoons of Nitrogeno10 soluble fertilizer, phosphorus (P) 10; Potassium (K) 10 (or similar bulb fertilizer) plus two cups of bonemeal every ten feet square.
soon as the first buds appear on the earth in the spring, repeat the application of soluble fertilizer above. Do not fertilize spring flowering bulbs after they have begun to bloom. This strengthens the root growth and sometimes shortens the life of the flower.
flower bulbs in spring and summer should be fertilized once a month since the outbreak looming until the plant blooms completely. Apply seven tablespoons of soluble fertilizer N10-P10-K10 (or similar fertilizer) divided into two or three applications in ten square feet.
The optimum pH of the bulbs is 6 to 7. To determine whether the application of clay is required to amend the soil pH is necessary to examine the soil. Where necessary, should be added to the soil clay. To achieve good development of shoots, mix bonemeal into the soil before planting.
What I did was buy patches of PH in stores like Sodimac or easy or laboratories, then take land out of my yard and watered a plant with common and there tirirta PH helped me measure my type of acid alkaline soil if:
Site selection Planting
Before choosing the place where the bulb will be in the context of landscape will be necessary to take into account the light at the plant. What does the plant? "Sun, partial shade, shade? Since early spring bulbs bloom before most trees and shrubs begin to bloom can be planted under the trees or shrubs without problem. Most summer bulbs need sun or partial shade. Beware this is not the same as the semi-shade a sparse tree with few branches but a shadow of a shed or porch .
The spring flower bulbs planted south facing them bloom earlier than bulbs planted facing north. Spring bulbs planted on a hillside will bloom earlier than bulbs planted in a flat. Cold air is heavier than warm and acts like water. Flows down the hill and collects in low areas.
peonies planting depth or other bulbs.
The rule of thumb for planting spring bulbs are planted at a depth of two to three times the length of the bulb. This means that most of large bulbs like tulips and daffodils should be planted at a depth of about 8 inches while the smaller bulbs should be planted at a depth of approximately 3 to 4 inches. The depth is measured from the bottom of the bulb. This basic rule does not apply to planting summer bulbs as there are several requirements for this type of planting bulbs. To learn about the depth of planting summer bulbs, see the information provided with the same bulbs.
In the case of tulips, daffodils and hyacinth bulbs should be planted with the nose up and the disc from the root down. The method most suitable for planting is to dig and loosen the soil around the planter to the desired depth. Then place the bulbs in the ground to exert a little pressure and cover the same ground. This method is better than individual planted a bulb planter. In many soils bulb planters do not work well and even, sometimes, are useless.
In my experience for a planting peonies nearly at ground level is the most optimal!!
herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora as common species)
scientific or Latin name: Paeonia lactiflora

- Temperature: ideally not grow in warm climates.
- Soil: well drained and rich in organic matter, fresh.
- regular watering, a couple of times a week, more often the case that the growing location is too exposed and sunny.
- Too much moisture during early spring growth and not much fertilizer because it reduces over-fertilization of flowering.
- Other factors that contribute to reducing the flowering include too much shade, competition from tree roots or planting too deep.
- The simple or semi-double flowers do not need tutors, the double-flowered, however, need a good support to avoid collapse in the rain.
- Multiplication by division of the clump in early spring or fall. - Peony pests and diseases.
- DISEASES. - Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
- Cladosporium rot or measles.
- is characterized by the presence in the leaves of numerous red spots. Remove and burn diseased leaves and stems. Protect remaining zineb sprays.
- BACTERIOSE.
- delphinii Pseudomonas bacteria can cause black spots on leaves. It can also attack stems and flowers. Avoid moisture, cut to the ground and burned old stems in autumn.
- Other bacterial soft rot are the neck (Pectobacterium) and bacterial wilt (Erwinia).
- WRONG FOOT.
- This disease can be caused by different fungi. Pythium causes a rotting of the roots and lower stem, so the plant wilts. This disease is favored by moisture and cold.
- The fungus Botrytis cinerea can cause symptoms identical to the stem rot. The plant wilts. If done at the beginning of evil, can be of any use zineb.
- powdery mildew.
- sometimes does cause significant damage, especially in wet weather and cold.
- VIROSES.

- The seeds should be planted in a moist environment and once you have developed roots, they go into pots with soil were placed in a cold room W at 10 ° C) or outdoors in winter by a within 24 months.
- This overcomes lethargy conditions on shoot who then began to grow with ease by changing the pots to temperatures of spring (warm).
- The selected clones are not faithfully reproduced by seed.

EDIT:
Form
plant: Place the plant alone, if you do not know the name and characteristics, it is better to have a special place for her in this way, we can observe their growth if it is a shrub height and width, and is wider than tall. For
On the other hand there are shrubs with different heights 70cm, 90cm, 1.2omt, there are the tree-like varieties, to compare sizes could say that may have the size and prescencia like the camellias or a lemon.
If you are not alone will overshadow other plants nearby, and will not compete for light and nutrients.
MY EXPERIENCE:
I buy rhizomes or fleshy roots, 4 years ago, the plant in a gardener, who I was half as shadow .... Error elcobertizo had already built and the shadow I think I only served for bluebells and azaleas or other
What if, d ieron many leaves and I was very happy !!!!! Gave buttons 2 of the 4 varieties of purchase, only a given flower, the other not, the buttons floralres got smaller until they died. You ants coming and going, so you have to have an eye to that topic.
Today at 4 years and put it on the blog, the change of place .... It was an ordeal because I was angry with them and cover with plenty of land, seriously !!!!, so divine punishment, I spent the whole day looking for them with great care not to break the blade fleshy roots and found them not all but the great majority:)
already had outbreaks so again I am very happy ... .. fits the place with good soil and leave almost at ground level, so that outbreaks begin to feel the heat and stimulate the roots to continue growing.
should I say now are in full sun, so amedida grow with the respective Credit umbrella will protect them with these cute Chinese ... are well decorated and give it another touch to the garden.
I think that the transplant did not flower this year, but I have a lot peace, science and perhaps another year to have flowers.
