Looking to enhance your peony blooms next season? Autumn is the ideal season to cut back garden peonies—when the first frost arrives and once leaves show signs of yellowing. Proper pruning encourages healthy regrowth, reduces disease risk, and prepares your garden for a spectacular cutting back peonies in fall spring bloom.
Why it matters:
- Removes unhealthy foliage like powdery mildew
- Redirects energy toward next season’s blooms
- Keeps your peony plants healthy and shapely
Pro Tip: Tree peonies benefit from light trimming—just remove dead wood and spent flowers!
What You’ll Need: Sanitized pruning shears, gloves, disinfectant, and a sharp eye for unhealthy growth.
Avoid common mistakes: Don’t prune prematurely, and always disinfect your tools after each plant.
