I have 4 peonies in a south facing raised bed. 2 herbaceous, 2 tree peonies. All
grow and bloom vigorously except 1 tree peony. I think it bloomed once in 2005. Then
one branch was hanging down so low I cut it off. It hasnt bloomed since then. I also
set my figs to the east and it gets some shade in the morning, but the azalea to the
east blooms just fine.
I dont over fertilize or even over water it. So what might be the problem? It
really is large and robust otherwise. Ingrid |

Got any tiny spider mite sized red dots in the foliage? Easier to see
early on. I had to use a systemic to rid the problem. Worked
but...Nasty stuff now residing in a decaying plastic container. Peonies
are now happy and my search for upward facing blooms goes on.
