Paeonies in my garden. How to grow them

  • I think we are many who like paeonies - especially for romantic gardens and cottage gardens. It’s such a great and easy plant. Today I show you how I grow them. I’m talking about paeonies as companion plants in the borders with roses and perennials and show how we plant tubers in the autumn.
    I’m showing:
    Paeonia ‘Kansas’
    Paeonia ‘Edulis Superba’
    Rose de Rescht
    Paeonia ‘Cuckoo’s Nest’
    Paeonia ‘Nippon Beauty’
    Paeonia ‘Miss America’
    Paeonia ‘Honey Gold’
    Paeonia ‘Bowl of beauty’
    Pimpinella rosea
    Paeonia suffruticosa
    Paeonia lutea
    Paeonia ‘Do Tell’
    Paeonia ‘White Charm’
    Paeonia ‘Peter Brand’
    Paeonia ‘Buckeye Belle’
    Paeonia ‘Sarah Bernhardt'
    My name is Claus Dalby, and I live in Risskov on the outskirts of Aarhus in Denmark. To date, I have written about 30 books on flowers and gardens in Danish, and my garden has been featured on many TV shows. In March 2022 my first book in English will be available. I consider my home (built in1908), and its garden with its neighboring wood, as my sanctuary. When I started gardening in 1996, there was just a large lawn covering approximately 1 acre (4,000 square meters), but today the grass is long gone - replaced by 15 hedged rooms with varying colors and moods. Additionally, one of my great passions is growing in pots, arranged to create spectacular container gardens, which I will share quite a bit about on this channel. Decor and creating moods have always interested me - both outside and inside - and I love to use the flowers from my garden for bouquets and to inspire other crafts that create a sense of hygge.

    I too am a lover of peonies. I have four that are the same variety as yours. To me a peony and a rose are a match made in heaven. Throw in a clematis and the three flowers together are a real showstopper. I also have a love of lilies and daylilies. I love your garden Claus. It is absolutely beautiful. God bless

    I live in Canada (zone 3) and we have to plant our paeonies a little deeper as the winter temps can plummet to -35C and colder. They have glorious blooms that get so heavy they topple over. I often leave the blooms on the plant too long. The pink variety I grow gets sun bleached then finally shed their petals. It is quite a clean up.

    Beautiful! I am very happy that you put the names up for the varieties at the end. I inherited a peony when I moved to my house 25 years ago. It is thriving and puts out a tremendous number of blooms. I never knew the variety. Now I think it’s the Sarah Bernhardt. Thank you for solving the mystery for me.

  • @nspector
    @nspector 3 года назад +3

    I hope I can write this thought properly. One of the the things that I so love about your gardens is that, although you do a lot of repetition, although you have color palettes, your gardens never look too "safe," or, too "tasteful," if you know what I mean. I was watching this video thinking about that a bit and trying to figure out why. I think one of the reasons, at least as far as bloom colors, is that, within a color, your modulations are actually quite exciting. There are shades of the same hue, yes, but also slight clashes here and there as well. "Clashes" in the best sense, I mean, where you have, say, a warmer tone of a color next to a cooler tone. To me, that, in addition of course to dozens of other elements that you master, is extremely exciting. You're not doing this idea with, say, the loudness that Great Dixter does it. No, you are doing it in your more gentle way. Against the soothing elements of the more straight forward repetitions, it's thrilling. I hope this makes some sense.
    EDIT: I thought I'd rewatch the video to see if I could find an example of what I'm trying to describe so that it's not so abstract. At 2:28 are the deep pink peonies. They are next to a paler pink rose -- same hue (more or less) but, in color terms, less saturation. But then the small single petal flowers in the front (don't know their name), is really a different hue, a cooler hue leaning more toward violet. And then, if I'm reading the image correctly, on the left and a bit in the distance, is what appears to be a redder peony. May be just be the way the camera is picking up the color there? But as it reads, it's a perfect example of what I am talking about -- a warmer, deeper almost red pink -- helping to activate all the other versions of pink.
