Here on the farm, we have peonies just poking out of the ground. That puts us in stage two of the peony growth cycle. Of course there are still plenty of varieties that haven’t shown up yet and are still in stage one.

There are seven stages all together that take us through the season from development underground to the big and beautiful blooms.

We’re excited to share the brand-new 2026 Hidden Springs Peony Farm t-shirt design—and we think you’re going to love it!

To celebrate, we’re giving one away to our email subscribers.

Spring peony care tip: remove winter mulch from your peonies to help new shoots emerge. Only newly planted peonies need winter protection—established plants thrive uncovered. Learn when and how to safely uncover your peonies for a healthy, blooming season.
