GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT PEONIES

Adventitious Peony Buds

Some cultivated herbaceous peonies have the ability to form adventitious eyes on roots well away from any crown tissue. Adventitious eyes are those that develop where you would not normally expect to find them, the common example is roots growing from stem cuttings. This means that if you are dividing a peony cultivar known to have adventitious roots, you don’t need root pieces with eyes on them to generate new plants. Save the other root pieces and grow eyes on them to generate new plants.
