Why You’ll Love Peonies and carnations

🌺 Lush Blush & Cream Peonies These full-bodied peonies are the crown jewels of spring and early summer blooms. Their soft, ruffled petals unfold like silk as they mature, creating an ever-changing display of romance and luxury. Watch them open dramatically over several days – it’s like having a live botanical show in your home!

💎 Jewel-Toned Carnations Deep burgundy and coral carnations add unexpected richness and texture to this design. Often underestimated, these blooms are workhorses of beauty – they hold their colour brilliantly, maintain perfect form, and bring warmth that contrasts beautifully with the softer peonies. They’re the secret to a bouquet that lasts!

🍃 Emerald Leather Leaf Structure Premium leather leaf stems provide clean, modern architecture that frames every bloom with sophistication. This glossy green foliage acts as both visual anchor and protective layer, keeping your flowers fresh and perfectly positioned throughout their vase life.

☁️ Wispy Italian Ruscus Softness Delicate Italian ruscus creates an ethereal, garden-fresh quality that prevents this arrangement from feeling too formal. These feathery stems add movement and lightness, ensuring your bouquet feels alive and naturally beautiful rather than stiff or staged.

🎁 Premium Kraft Paper Wrapping Finished with natural kraft paper and twine, this bouquet arrives with understated elegance. The wrapping is designed to be presentation-worthy – beautiful enough to photograph – while remaining completely recyclable and eco-conscious.

💧 How to Keep Your Peonies and carnations Looking Beautiful

💧 Water Care

• Change water every 2 days with fresh, cool water
• Keep water level high – all flowers need consistent hydration
• Use a clean vase to prevent bacterial growth
• Add the flower food packet we provide for extended freshness
• Ensure all stems are fully submerged in water
• Use room temperature water (not ice cold)

✂️ Stem Maintenance

• Trim stems at a 45-degree angle every 2-3 days
• Use sharp, clean scissors or floral shears for clean cuts
• Remove any leaves that fall below the water line – this prevents bacterial growth
• Re-cut stems under running water when possible for maximum water absorption
• Cut about 1-2cm off each stem to keep pores open and fresh
• Peonies benefit from gently peeling back outer guard petals when they arrive – this helps them open beautifully

🌡️ Environment

• Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources
• Avoid placing near heating vents, air conditioning drafts, or ripening fruit
• Cool rooms (65-72°F / 18-22°C) help flowers last longer – peonies especially love cooler temps
• Keep away from ceiling fans that can dry out blooms quickly
• Moderate humidity helps maintain freshness and prevents petal drop

⏰ Expected Vase Life With proper care, your Peonies and carnations will stay beautiful for 5–14 days depending on the flower type!

🌟 Pro Tips from the Best Florist Calgary Has

• Peonies are “slow bloomers” – expect them to open progressively over 3-5 days. This extended opening is part of their magic!
• Carnations are the marathon runners of the bouquet – they’ll hold their colour and form for up to 2 weeks, making this arrangement increasingly peony-forward as it matures
• If peonies arrive very tight, place the entire bouquet in a cool room (55-60°F) for several hours to trigger faster opening
• Mist the outer petals of peonies lightly with water – this helps them release and open beautifully without direct water damage
• The leather leaf can last longer than the flowers themselves – once blooms fade, this greenery is gorgeous in dried arrangements
• Never crowd your bouquet in the vase – these flowers need air circulation to stay fresh
• If any petals brown at the edges, gently remove them – this is normal aging and won’t affect the bloom’s overall beauty
• Carnations appreciate a bit of support – if they start to droop, tie them gently with soft twine to the vase rim for perfect presentation
• This bouquet actually improves as it ages – the peonies open to reveal their full glory while carnations deepen in colour richness
• Re-hydrate droopy stems by cutting 2-3 inches off and standing them in room temperature water for 1-2 hours
