When to plant peonies in Wrocław

These come from the ERA5 reanalysis on a roughly 9 km grid, so they describe the area rather than your plot. A hollow, a frost pocket or an exposed site regularly runs several degrees colder, so use the cautious date for a decision you cannot undo.

What can move the date

Planting depth decides everything: the eyes must sit 3–5 cm below the surface, no deeper, or it grows leaves for a decade and never flowers. Plant in autumn and then never move it — peonies live fifty years.

Final spacing: 90 × 100 cm. Soil: pH 6.5–7.5.
