Do Peonies grow on clay soil?Updated 20 days ago

Peonies don't mind a clay soil providing it doesn't become waterlogged in winter. If you have clay soil, you should ensure the soil drains adequately prior to planting. You can add a generous amount of compost when planting and continue to improve the soil over time by digging in compost, leaf mould or well rotted manure each year.. This will help to break up the soil, improving drainage, air circulation and fertility of the planting area.
