I know this will sound odd, but pesticide was the problem for my mom's peonies. When she stopped using pesticides and the ants ran all over the peonies they bloomed like crazy. Do not know why, maybe they pollinated it, but that is what worked for her. ;)

They are very perticular on how deep they are planted. I have 1 bush that has been her for 28 plus years and blooms are just beautiful. I will put feed on them and that is all I do. In the fall I will cut back to the ground.
