Pretty peonies from Debenhams Flowers...

This post contains a bouquet that was sent for review


It may be a complete blogger cliché but I really love peonies. They look so subtle to begin with but my favourite is when they burst into huge blossoms of colour and scent. Debenhams flowers sent me this beautiful peony bouquet to review and I couldn't be happier with them. I got eleven flowers, plus greenery in my bouquet and the scent is to die for. Getting a flower delivery is super fun and having a bright purple box arrive at work certainly brightened up my Friday! Fresh flowers are one of those wonderful luxuries that I always try and save up for, there really is nothing nicer than having a vase full of flowers to brighten up a room and they are guaranteed to put a smile on my face.



The flowers came wrapped in some gorgeous pink paper and looked lovely. Apologies for the dark photos, it was very late by the time I got home on Friday!


They also come with a useful booklet that tells you how to take care of the flowers- very useful if you are a notorious plant-killer like me!


I have been lucky enough to inherit a lot of glassware from various friends and family members but none of my vases were quite right. Luckily Waitrose is just a stone's throw away from our flat and I picked up this lovely vase instore for a mere £8. This one on the John Lewis website is near identical although I don't know why it is more than twice the price!


I mean, how could you not love them? They are just so unashamedly vibrant!


Subtle they ain't but I can't resist the millions of layers of petals!

This is the BEST idea, I love getting flowers and generally buy new blooms most weeks to fill the house. Being sent them, even better.
Do love peonies, but find the STINK after they start to die - bit like beans.

Beauitful peonies Maria! I love that blush pink colour. My favourites are a cross between sunflowers and daffodils, I love their bright, sunny colours. - Tasha
