Perennial plants like peonies are easy to grow.If you want to divide your peonies up and plant them in a different spot, make sure that spot has lots of sunlight and well-draining soil.Each section of the peonies should have at least 3 buds and some healthy roots to promote regrowth.The peonies won't be able to create beautiful blooms in the spring if you place the buds deeper than 2 in.
