'Peony Bliss' Florals

True peony season comes but once a year, and when their prolific blooms are plentiful, there is nothing better than a beautiful bounty of variegated peonies. Their incredible journey from green ball state to a flurried plume of petaled perfection is a true symphony for the eyes. Beautiful arrangements don’t have to be complicated and with this entire peony arrangement, you can see why. Even in still photos, the ruffled nature of peonies gives so much life and movement. The fragrant blooms are aromatic in their sweet, subtle notes. If you haven’t been to the northwest during peony season, it’s well worth a trip. Hitting up Pike Place Market and seeing all the flower farms and their stalls filled to the brim with peonies is an out of world experience. I hope you enjoy this arrangement and are able to bring a bit of peony life to your home soon!
