Simple Peony Arrangement
Ahhhh peony season. It’s never long enough. My plants usually bloom over 2-3 weeks, and it smells glorious inside my house during those few weeks from all the flower arrangements I put together. Here’s an example of a simple arrangement you can put together yourself using a few perennial favorites in addition to peony flowers.
The ingredients:
Peony flowers. I used Sarah Bernhardt for their wonderful vase life, superior floral fragrance, and large format flowers.
Shasta daisies. Feverfew and chamomile would work, too.
Bolted arugula. Yep, the same stuff you enjoy in a salad. When the weather heats up it puts out these clustered yellow flowers on long stems.
Dappled willow. Love the speckles and pinkish-white color.
Apple mint. Ole faithful for greenery here at Blueacre. Abundant, lush, lovely smell, available from May-October. Need I say more?
