Spring is here and one of our favourite things about the season is that peonies are blossoming just about everywhere.

The delicate bowl-shaped blooms are the perfect way to breathe freshness and new life into your interiors or send to someone special as a thoughtful gift.

They flower from late-April to June and come in every shade apart from blue, making now the perfect time to indulge in a bouquet without the guilt of clocking up needless air miles. Structurally complex and heavenly scented, Arena Flowers says “there are around 40 species of peonies with around 6,500 cultivars and hybrids”, giving you plenty of choice when it comes to filling your vases.

They symbolise good fortune and a happy marriage - no wonder they’re the top choice for brides across the country. They’re also a 12th Wedding Anniversary symbol.

With proper water changes and care (keep away from heat sources and sunlight), peonies can last up to ten days and can unfurl from the size of a golf ball to an impressive ten-inches wide.

As sales of the petals rocket and weddings gets into full flow, we round up the nicest bunches from our favourite florists.

Prepare to swoon over the best peony bouquets to order now before they’re gone for another season.
