Paeony Rose
 

I moved a paeony rose from my mum's garden to ours 3 years ago and
it's never flowered although the foliage has been lush and plentiful.
I understand now that I could have planted it too deeply. Is it worth
lifting it at the end of this season when the foliage has died and
re-plant it - and if so, should I do this in the same spot it is
presently in, only shallower or move to a completely different part of
the garden and try again?

Any advice gratefully received.

Hi,
You can dig up when in dormancy stage and split if you wish, you could also
try feeding from now until leaves die back with a high potash fertiliser
such as tomato feed, this will build up the nutrients in the roots for
flowering next year.
paeony,s can take about 3 years before flowering after being disturbed.
As your plant has very lush foliage, I would simply go with tomato feed for
rest of this season.
