Complement your peony plantings with ant-repellant plants. Another way you can discourage ants from getting on your peonies is by planting ant-repellant plants nearby. Some common plants that tend to repel ants are geraniums, mint, garlic, and calendula.
If you don't have the ants you will be sorry. Ants help the Peonys open up.
If you get rid of the ants you might as well get rid of the plants. No ants no flowers. Bknoland is right
Yes...you need the ants...they eat the sticky substance on the flower head and then it opens...without the ants the flower will die before opening!! leave the ants alone they are doing their job!!
Peony's have to have ants in order to bloom.
