Peony season is finally here, so we think it is only fitting that we share our favourite bloom and what makes it so special!
This delicate flower is utterly fantastic but very elusive with a very short period of availability. Herbacious peonies are grown in Australia, particularly in the cooler weather climates. Once the Australian and New Zealand peony season is over, you will usually see a limited season during winter where imported Dutch peonies grace our bouquets and arrangements.
First and foremost, you cannot go past their incredibly unique petals. Peonies are a very feminine and fluffy flower with stunning ruffled petals that form a large round bloom.
While other flowers come and go, there is just something so special about the peony that never seems to go out of style. The beauty of the peony lies in their huge, round, petals abundant, spilling out of the vase. Popular with gardeners, who love the longevity of the plant with very little work required to grow. They also come in a range of colours from pretty shades of pink and deep port wine, as well as classic white and a soft mauve.
