Marbella Composition

Such an arrangement is appropriate as a gift for May 9 — restrained and dignified, as well as a standalone bouquet for other celebratory occasions. Peonies are valued for their ability to look elegant without additional decoration, so the composition looks equally good in a festive setting and in a calm interior.

To keep cut peonies fresh longer, trim the stems at an acute angle and change the water in the vase every two days, rinsing the vessel and refreshing the cut. Keep the vase away from direct sunlight, drafts, and fruit — this way the petals will retain their shape and color longer.
