Peonies: The It-Girl of the Flower World
Share
Every season has its “it” accessory. For some, it’s a new handbag. For others, a shade of lipstick. But when it comes to flowers? The crown jewel of any bouquet is undoubtedly the peony.
With layers of soft, ruffled petals that seem to whisper romance (and maybe a little drama), peonies have become the flower equivalent of a couture gown—effortless, timeless, and endlessly photogenic.
A Little Flower History (Because Every Star Has an Origin Story)
Peonies aren’t new to the spotlight. In China, they were once reserved for royalty, symbolizing wealth and honor. In Victorian gardens, they meant good fortune (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t need a little more of that?). Fast forward to now, and they’ve become the bloom every bride dreams of and every Instagram feed obsesses over.
Why We’re All Still Obsessed
- They open in layers, like secrets being revealed.
- Their colors range from delicate blush to show-stopping coral.
- They last just long enough to feel rare—like a seasonal crush you can’t forget.
Basically, peonies are the Carrie Bradshaw of flowers: charming, romantic, and just a little bit extra.
