If you get enough root ball with the peonie and don't change it's light it should bloom fine... Just be sure to trick it into thinking it hasn't been moved... What ever moinsture it is used to you'll have to maintain, though... Don't divide until after it finsihes blooming and then do so carefully... No shovel doen the nmiddle trick like day lillies...
As for your bulbs, you know to enjoy them and then pot them... If thay are late bloomer you might get away with potting them if you get enough dirt around them... The problems with that is if they have clustered you are apt to damage the bulb for this year, however, it will be fine for next year...
Can't help ya' with earwigs... Read the label on your horticultural oil and see if it works on them critters... Seems to work on most pests...
