About this deal

One popular type of encircling support structure for peonies are cage supports which are not cylindrical in shape, but taper from the base out to a wider circumference at the top. The best peony support rings have a grid for a reason. If this did not have the grid they would just lean all around the peony ring instead of holding up their blooms.

Keep the portion you cut off, this can still be used to support things in your garden, even smaller peony bushes.

When to use peony plant supports

The cone-shape of our peony plant supports allows your peonies to stand proud and show off their glorious blooms. You can also use this method for supporting peonies that are already blooming, to prop up any flowers that are already drooping, or to support peonies that are too tall for commercial cages. How To Make Peony Plant Supports Step-By-Step Since they are such early spring growers, it’s best to cut down peonies in the fall after hard frost has killed the foliage. This also helps prevent pests and disease. Simply cut the plant all the way down to the ground. Another way to support peonies is with plant support hoops, which completely encircle a peony clump and provide it with some support.

The cone-shaped supports are manufactured from 6mm solid steel wire and they are also ideal for Daisies, verbascum etc. The key with plant supports is to ensure that they do not distract from the flowers themselves,” shares Master Horticulturist Colin Skelly.

Planting potted peonies is a great way to get a bit of a head start on growing these beautiful plants.

Trim your peonies after they’re done blooming to remove the dead flowers, and give the plants a nice shape for the summer. Don't forget: while rusty plant supports are a classic at the moment, it's best to choose whichever you think will work best in your garden. Think about whether you want to make a feature out of the plant supports, or whether you want the peony to be the main attraction. You don't want your chic plant support detracting from the beauty of the peony in question.
