Peonies are a traditional- and much loved Spring Flower. As a child we had 2 large acres of Peonies- that my Grandpa Carnation Joe would care for, pamper and of course harvest! We always wanted to be sure we had Peonies to offer our customers for Memorial Day…
This meant pampering and caring for the Peonies- but also being aware- if they were going to bloom too far ahead of Memorial Day. My Grandpa developed a trick- that allowed him to harvest Peonies in bud stage- and hold them for up to 3-4 weeks- I share this tip in this At with Flowers Episode- It’s a trick I use – so that I can save some Peonies each year- and spread out the season- when all my bushes want to bloom at once!
I also share tips for using Hosta Leaves as foliage support for the peony blooms and I used one of my favorite vintage vases for the project! I hope you enjoy this At home with Flowers video- dedicated to one of my favorite flowers- the Peony!
