When is the Best time to transplant Peony Bushes?

Answer 1

Late fall or early spring, don't try now.

After they die back, in the fall, you can dig and split, or do the same in early spring.

Good luck!

Answer 2

The best time to transplant peonies is in the fall--the beginning of September, so that it'll get a good root system established before a freeze.
Dig deep and dig about 8"-10" outside the stems. They are quite hardy but may take an extra year to flower after transplanting

Planting, transplanting and dividing peonies are best done in early fall but may be done in spring as soon as soils are workable... http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/1000/1241.html

Late August or early September is the best time of the year. If you choose to plant them in the spring, a year's bloom is usually lost... http://www.ext.nodak.edu/county/cass/horticulture/faq/flower/plant.htm

Answer 3

Propagate tuberous species by root cuttings in winter. Perennials may also be propagated by division in autumn or early spring. They prefer sun and rich, well-drained soil. If it is a tree peony by semi-ripe cuttings in late summer or by grafting in winter.
Good luck.

Answer 4

Usually in the fall. They are fussy movers. They will be stunted for a while and some may not make depending on how old they are. Younger ones do better.
