Re: Lots of questions...need help re lilies & peonies especially...

I have purchased them at both times of the year...the ones I plant in
spring generally take an extra season to establish themselves, with no
blooms that first spring, but by the second spring have generally
performed very well. Fall planted peonies are ready to go by spring with
good blooms. I have also dug peonies in spring, summer, and fall...same
premise applies...that first year you will sacrifice the blooms but by
second year things should be fine.
