Want your peonies to bloom brighter next year? The perfect time to cut back herbaceous peonies—after the first frost and once leaves show signs of yellowing. Proper pruning encourages healthy regrowth, reduces disease risk, and sets the stage for a spectacular spring bloom.
Why it matters:
- Removes disease-prone foliage like powdery mildew
- Redirects energy toward next season’s blooms
- Keeps your peony plants vigorous and tidy
Pro Tip: Tree peonies need less pruning—just remove dead wood and herbaceous peony care spent flowers!
What You’ll Need: Clean pruning shears, gloves, disinfectant, and a sharp eye for unhealthy growth.
Avoid common mistakes: Don’t prune too early, and always disinfect your tools after each plant.
