Peony and peony are flowers that many florists like. In April last year, Scientific Agriculture took my parents to Luoyang to see peonies. I have to say that peony is known as the "King of Flowers". I feel it is well deserved. When I was watching peonies in the park, I discovered that peonies were grown in certain places. Because the two are similar, many friends can’t tell them apart. Here, Science and Agriculture will share with you some methods on how to distinguish peonies and peonies. How to distinguish peony and peony?

Peony and peony are indeed very similar in appearance, because both are plants belonging to the genus Paeoniaceae of the family Paeoniaceae. In this way, the genetic relationship between the two is very close. This is also No wonder the presidents look so similar. Of course, it is relatively easy to distinguish the two.

First of all, in terms of the blooming time of the two, the flowering period of peonies is generally from April to May every year. By the middle of May, the peonies have almost finished blooming. At this time, our peonies have just begun to bloom, and the flowering periods of the two are exactly one month apart. The peonies bloom generally from May to June every year. Therefore, many ADs will plant some peonies as a complement when planting peonies, which can have the effect of extending the viewing time of the flowering period.

Secondly, we can distinguish the two from their flowers. The diameter of peony flowers is generally larger than that of peony flowers, and there is only one flower on each branch of peony flowers, which looks like a single flower. . Peony flowers often have several flower buds on one branch. Furthermore, the petals of peonies are relatively neatly layered, mostly double, while the flower types of peonies are more diverse, with both double and single petals. The petals of double peonies are very compact.

In addition, we can also distinguish between the two stems. Peonies are perennial herbaceous flowers, while peonies are woody flowers. This can be seen from the stems of the two. Most of the stems of peonies near the roots are lignified, while peonies will not have lignified stems. This is why peonies rarely droop when they bloom, but peonies often have insufficient stem strength to support the flowers. And in winter, the two parts of the peony flower above the ground will wither, leaving only the rhizome part dormant underground. The leaves of peonies will fall off in winter, but the stems can survive the winter safely.
