But I think one way or another it's not getting enough nutrient. Have you changed the soil at all in that 3 years? It's difficult to keep the soil in good condition using fertiliser alone. But tree paeonies are big plants, and I wouldn't think that container is large enough, either in width or depth. -- Kay |
