One of the most amazing flowers that is easy to grow in Vermont is The Peony. Visually, this flower has quite an impact! It is truly one of my favorites to use in bouquets and centerpieces.With colors ranging from whites and creams to hot pink and magenta ( also, specialty cultivars come in shades of apricot, green, yellow, and chocolate!) this perennial flower is incredibly versatile – from a “simple” country wedding in a rustic birch container to an elegant affair presented in a silver or copper vessel – you will be more than mesmerized at it’s incredible beauty. The season for the Peony lasts about 6 – 8 weeks – starting in mid spring ( May) and possibly going through the first part of July, depending on the weather – they do not like the heat!
Lovely in a bridal bouquet – the buds are wonderful for boutonnieres – and centerpieces will “wow” your guests when filled with these luscious blooms. Personally, I am so enchanted by peonies that I named my first horse, a lovely Morgan Mare “Peony”.

Flowers can be so beautiful…no matter what the occasion.
These flowers look familiar
Everyone (including us!!) can’t stop talking about how stunningly beautiful the flowers were at our wedding. Peonies will now always hold special meaning for us. Thanks again for presenting our vision in such a fantastic way!
Peonies just have a gorgeousness all their own!
