    I also use Link Stakes which are effective and unobtrusive.

    Hi,
    Should I dead head my peony or let the seed heads develop?
    (It's the smaller once flowering kind, not the tree type)

    Thanks
    David

    I have 3 legacy peonies, which I would like to propagate - can I propagate them from the seed pods?

    Also before I am forced to look on Gargoyle - what is a linkstake?

    Cheers.
