It is believed that at one point peonies can grow for decades, but, in practice, to rejuvenate the bush should be not less than once every 5 years. This periodicity rejuvenation due to the fact that, being a long time in one place, the intensity of flowering plants is significantly reduced, and the bushes are more vulnerable to diseases. Furthermore, during prolonged absence rejuvenation closely interwoven roots, and attempts to transplant bush could damage them.
The most appropriate time for the division of the bush is the end of summer - early autumn (mid-September). Under favorable weather conditions, produce a transplant for September. Transplantation spring and after flowering is also acceptable, but in this case can be difficult to culture adaptation.
The process begins with transplantation bush that around it (the recommended distance - from 20 to 25 cm) dig a pit (two bayonet). Next, we should take scrap and shake the bush before removing it from the ground. The roots are then cleaned of soil, and leave the bush for a few hours. Immediately carry out the division is not necessary: for three or four hours a little roots podvyanut and become less resistant to damage.
After a few hours immediately start to divide. To do this, cut the stems (10-15 cm), the roots are washed with water and with the help of the stake break the bush into two or more parts. Max score should be such as to ensure the least damage to the kidneys.
The resulting parts are cut using a sharp knife. For planting young selected portion. If there are sick areas where visible small kidneys, must be removed. They are also subject to removal the damaged roots. For planting delenki recommended to choose that are young root (the length should be 8-12 cm) and two or three buds. Lush flowering bushes such can be expected in two years. If you want to get a bush with abundant flowering in the near future, one or two delenki do more.
Delenok planting process has a number of features. Before young plant peony, their roots are recommended for 30 minutes in place of potassium permanganate solution (prepared 0.1% solution) and then sprinkled slices pulverized coal. To prepare the planting pit depth of 50-70 cm, and fill them of garden soil 50%.
Bush in the hole should be located so that the kidneys were located a little below ground level (do not bury necessary). 3-5 cm roots kidney deepened only if the pit was prepared for 3 weeks (recommended length of training places for transplanting peonies). Then the flowers are watered and spud. In order to avoid freezing of divided colors, when the frost peat soil around sprinkled (layer - 10-15 cm). Spring peat necessarily clean.
Thus, pions division is a complex process requiring compliance with certain requirements. At the same time, spending time on the division of the bushes, you can get beautiful and healthy flowers.
