Bulk Peonies flowers are shipped directly from our farms. Before shipping your flowers, we prepare them for their journey with proper hydration methods. If your flowers appear sleepy and thirsty after their journey, it is absolutely NORMAL. Just follow these simple steps and the flowers will bloom delightfully.

1. Remove flowers from box by cutting any straps. Do not remove the rubber bands holding the flowers together in a bunch. 
2. Fill containers with at least 4 inches of fresh, cool water. 
3. Cut stems diagonally approximately an inch from the stem's bottom edge. Do so under running water with sharp scissors or knife. This will create a fresh surface to absorb water. 
4. Immediately after cutting, place the stems in the prepared water. 
5. Within 8 hours of cutting and hydrating the flowers, the flower bud will pop open.
6. Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, drafts or excessive heat. 
7. Change water every 24 hours to keep flowers fresh. This will keep the water from becoming contaminated with bacteria that will block the flower's availability to absorb water. Assure that your flowers have sufficient water. The flowers will drink an exceptionally large amount of water upon arrival.

If a refrigerator must be used, wrap bunched stems in clear plastic and seal the ends. This will prevent frost from destroying the flower bud. With refrigeration, the flower life will be shorter.
