It’s that time of year and my favourite flowers are appearing all around the house. Peony season is upon us!
A few little things I do to help them last beautifully:
• trim the stems at an angle
• remove any leaves below the water line
• refresh the water regularly
• and if the buds are still closed, a little warm water helps encourage them to open
I also always prefer arranging them loosely so they have space to unfurl naturally. The slightly undone look is part of the charm.
We’ve got some late peony blooms starting to appear in the garden this year too! I can’t wait for them to be ready to pick.
Happy Wednesday x
