Sunday Best features a mix of peonies, ranunculus, roses, chrysanthemums and foliage, arranged in a 6.75" ceramic vase. Sourced directly from our trusted growers, rest assured that they're the most extraordinary stems around!
Some of the blooms may still be budded on arrival as we send only the freshest farm-cut flowers available. This means that they can be enjoyed for as long as possible!
Peonies start as balls shaped like 'ice cream scoops' and open into large flowers with ruffled layers of petals with a delightful fragrance. Our peonies are delivered in more closed buds as they are fresh from the grower, so you can enjoy them for as long as possible! Once bloomed, peonies tend to have a shorter than average lifespan, but it’s their fleeting beauty that makes them so special!
The garden-style roses in the mix have naturally ruffled petals with frilly edges. This is completely normal and what makes them so unique!
The vase contains water that may have spilled during travel, so it's important to add more water immediately upon receipt. See our recommended instructions below to best care for your blooms.
To maximize the life of your centrepiece:
Remove the arrangement from the box - be extra careful as the vases contain water and the flowers are delicate.
Guard petals (slightly blemished or discoloured outer petals) on the roses are intentionally left on as they protect the bloom during transit. They can be easily removed, if you wish, though we often prefer to leave them intact as they add character and make the rose open nicer!
You may also notice some blemishes on the outer petals of the peonies - this is totally normal and will not affect their overall health. Once the flower opens, these petals will go to the underside, making the blemishes unnoticeable.
Add water immediately! To do so, in a separate container, mix a sprinkle of provided flower food with room temperature water and carefully pour into the vase. Hang onto the packet for future waterings and repeat this step daily to prolong the life of your blooms.
Keep the flowers in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and heat.
Some flowers will bloom faster than others and at different times. Remove stems as they expire to keep the others blooming bright!
