Peony Care - Tips for Extended Vase Life
Peonies are one of our favourite flowers, we get so excited when peony season finally arrives. Based on all your feedback lately, we know you do too!
Below are a few tips to get the best vase life from your peonies
Fresh water, change your water frequently to make sure bacteria doesn’t build up in the water. This can clog peony stems reducing their vase life
Recut your peony stems when changing the water
Add a teaspoon of sugar to the water, sugar is a food source for peonies. It can give your blooms a little boost
Cut your peony stems at a long angle, about 45 degrees or more, this increases the amount of water each stem can absorb.
Keep flowers out of direct sunlight or in a cooler room
Once your peonies have opened fully, expect around 5-7 days of enjoyment
