If it is placed on a balcony or roof facing south, it needs shading from the west to prevent trees from being exposed to the sun for a long time. Peony is a deep-rooted plant. Before planting, the soil should be deeply ploughed and applied with base fertilizer.

Peony flowers are cold-resistant and afraid of high temperature. If the temperature exceeds 25℃, plants will hibernate. The optimum flowering temperature is 17-20℃, but it must be treated at 1- 10℃ for 2-3 months before flowering. The minimum tolerance is -30℃, but appropriate measures should be taken to avoid freezing injury in winter in cold areas of northern China. The hot and humid weather in the south is very unfavorable to the growth of peony. Soil peony is suitable for fertile and loose soil with deep soil layer and strong drainage ability, preferably neutral or slightly alkaline soil.
