I purchased some bare root Peony (Karl Rosenfeld, grows to a height of
35-40", Blooms in early summer, red, double).  It's in a bit of (what looks
like) starting mix and is in a plastic bag, tie wrapped.  When I looked at
it earlier today, it started shoots!!! there is green growth on the inside
of the bag.  It's a bit too early to plant it out and I don't know if it's
safe to leave it in the bag as is for another 6-8 weeks (when the soil warms
up).  Can I plant it in a pot and let it grow at home then transplant it
safely?


Better off sticking it in a cold fridge, you can try to pot-but it will need a lot of light.  If you cannot give it the light, it will be smaller next year when it comes up.


I would put it in the fridge to slow down the growth-but it should be cold F. 33-38.

how long are the shoots right now?
