Family peony tale moves with heirloom plant across generations
Senner at Pioneer Ridge Retirement Community recalls a long cherished peony that could not accompany her but was carried to a relative in Topeka. Local horticulturist Mary Leonard notes peonies thrive in the Midwest with Russian varieties blooming earlier. Tips include roots with three to five eyes and planting no more than one inch deep in early fall with light spring fertilizer.
