Hi there
I hope I have posted this in the right section as I am new to this websibe.
Does anyone know how long peonies take to open, as I have a wedding booked and am not sure how in advanced I need to buy them.
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thank you
karen

depends on the peony sometimes they come in really tight and take quite a while to open then you get them in when they are in bloom might be best asking the wholesaler how they usally come in

as for this section it is for the people that work from home not from a shop i hope that helps

Hi there

It might be worth having a back up flower in mind as peonies are not always available and have a very short season, and even when in season they are not always available everyday. Good Luck though.

I had some really tight heads last year for a wedding. I forced the ones I needed by putting them in a warm room in warm water then teased the heads open. Those that had just been left in the shop to open normally took a full week to open!

I have a mental picture of you in a room with the heating on full blast pointing at the flowers singing 'you can't open your heads, ner ner na ner ner' at them!
