If you follow me on Instagram, then you know that I am obsessed with peonies. (And if you don’t follow me, you should right now 😉 ). As soon as they start showing up in grocery stores, I buy them just about every other week. They are just so beautiful, it is hard to help myself!
This habit can be a little pricy though so I recently looked into growing my own peonies!
This “make it Monday” post will not have any immediate results to show but I PRAY it will pay off like crazy come June!
SO.. after a little research, I found that you can purchase peony bulbs online and that they should be planted in the fall before the first frost. Perfect timing.
I planted them in our back yard because they will need full sun by the time they start sprouting. Plus, they are sure to look gorgeous next to our pool and giant unicorn float next summer, lolz.
This is my first time attempting to garden. I have my fiddle fig leaf tree inside but haven’t tried anything outside yet…just another adulting task. Do you have outdoor flower beds? How do you go about making them look nice?
They look beautiful! I only have a patio and a small cactus (since I live in AZ)!
Can you come to my house to grow Peonies?! I have the black thumb of death!

OMG I love this!! I LOVE peonies but I haven’t had any success growing them – I know what I’m doing this weekend!!!
These are so pretty! I wish I had a green thumb.
