Did I plant this peony ok?

The nursery said a 20” pot for it and to not plant it too deep. If I went deeper I thought it’d be too close to the bottom but now I’m nervous it’s not low enough…

Ok thanks! I’m getting a ton of mixed reviews on another platform. The nursery I bought it from said to make sure I don’t plant it too low and that it should be good inside that pot for a couple years. But other people are saying it can’t be in a pot and will probably struggle after one season lol
