Lush and distinctive, the peony is among the world’s most versatile blooms. As flowers go, it is especially striking. Who can resist that pillowy texture and those ruffled petals that almost seem like little tufts of whipped cream? They’re sweet, innocent, and a wonderful representation of all that spring has to offer.
That also makes them a great addition to your springtime décor. Delicate peonies are symbolic of so many different emotions, from love and romance to prosperity and good fortune. People traditionally give peonies as an expression of their best wishes to another. They’re suitable to give as a gesture of goodwill, too.
Whether for a friend, a family member, or a significant other, there’s virtually nothing that a peony cannot express. It’s just that type of flower — and it also happens to be a gorgeous addition to the home on top of that. This is largely why peonies are so popular. They make decorating a joy!
