Peonies at Dusk

Blush Peonies and Lilac Roses in Soft Twilight Tones

Peonies at Dusk is a hand-tied bouquet of blush pink peonies, lilac roses and sprigs of purple lavender, made in our Claremont studio and delivered the same day across Cape Town. The colours are the ones the sky turns just after sunset: soft pink, dusky mauve and a deeper violet at the edges. It is a quieter kind of beautiful, for people who love flowers that feel gentle rather than loud. Peonies are only with us for a short season, so this bouquet is too. See the rest of the season in our peony collection.

What's in Peonies at Dusk

• Blush pink peonies: full, ruffled blooms and buds that open over a few days

• Presentation: hand-tied by our florists
• Delivery: same day in Cape Town when you order before 12pm, with a free handwritten card

A Gentle Bouquet for Tender Moments

Peonies at Dusk suits the moments that call for softness. Send it for a mother's birthday, a new baby girl, a friend who needs a little care, or a romantic gesture that doesn't need to shout. The pink peonies bring warmth, the lilac roses keep it calm, and the lavender adds just enough depth to stop it feeling sweet. If you would like something brighter, Electric Bloom turns the colour right up, and for coral peonies with peach roses and blue delphinium, see Heart and Bloom.

How to Care for Your Bouquet

The peonies may arrive partly closed, and they open over the next few days. Trim all the stems at an angle every two days, change the water often, and take off any leaves that sit below the waterline. Keep the vase out of direct sun and away from ripening fruit. If a peony is slow to open, roll the bud gently between your fingers. Our guide to peonies in South Africa has more care tips.
