1 Comment To "Accidently Cut Peony Root System"

They should be ok, but you will likely not see blooms from them for a few years. Peonies do not like to have their roots disturbed and when they are disturbed, they stop blooming while the roots recover. Give them some bone meal to boost phosphorous, which will help them with root repairing and just take good care of them for the next year. This will help get them back on blooming track as quickly as possible.
