The peony has thrived well at its owner's place but no flower yet this year, which is normal.

Description
Paeonia suffruticosa Pink is a solitary, double-flowered shrubby peony with soft pink flowers and a bright pink centre, adorned with yellow stamens. These large cup-shaped flowers measure 15 to 18 cm (6 to 7 in) in diameter, blooming from mid-May to mid-June and perched on upright stems. Some consider shrubby peonies to be the epitome of refinement.
Growing fairly slowly, this extremely hardy shrub reaches a height of 1.5-2 m (5-7 ft). The deciduous leaves are composed of nine lanceolate leaflets, which are very smooth with a brownish-green colour when budding and a tender green colour with a bluish underside afterwards.
Originating from Eastern Asia, Paeonia suffruticosa is more delicate than herbaceous varieties, preferring sheltered locations, especially from cold winds. It grows in partial shade but tolerates non-burning sunlight, and thrives in rich, deep, humus-bearing, moist, acidic, and light soil, not tolerating limestone and struggling in heavy soils.
In the garden, Paeonia suffruticosa Pink can be used individually against a wall or hedge, or in a mass planting under tall trees, but always sheltered from winds and in well-ventilated and bright areas. Peonies can be combined with other perennials that bloom before or after them, such as grasses, roses, irises, or bellflowers.

Planting and care
Place Paeonia suffruticosa Pink mainly in partial shade. From September to May, except during freezing periods, plant it in a fertile and deep humus-bearing soil that is moist but well drained to prevent the roots from rotting. Easy to grow, peonies require little maintenance. When planting, make a large hole of 40 to 50 cm (16 to 20 in) on each side and add potting soil, river sand, and peat. Do not overcrowd the plants to allow for good ventilation. Place the collar at ground level. Keep the soil moist throughout the growing season with regular watering. Peonies are known to be homebodies. This is why they should not be moved after planting. Avoid pruning unless the base becomes bare. If that is the case, cut back to the shoots at the base. Provide a support stake to support the flower stems and remove faded flowers during the season.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
