Seeking advice, oh wise Internets


A friend of mine gave me the above plant as a gift. I've had it a few days now, but (a) have no idea what it is and (b) no idea what to do with it. Any advice? Does it need to be planted outside? I really hope it doesn't need lots of sunlight.

Your wisdom, oh great Internets, would be much appreciated.

Well, basically you put it in your window and water it twice a week. That should do the trick.

The first thing you might want to do is to repot the peony in a larger pot-- plants aren't meant to stay in the store packaging for long. If there are spent flowers or leaves, clip them gently. You'll also probably need to place it somewhere cool sometime during the winter because peonies need a cooling period to bloom again.
