I just hosted my niece’s bridesmaid brunch and did the flowers myself. I used lots of peonies. I purchased them from Trader Joe’s and put arrangements together in the hotel room. I’ve learned a lot from watching your videos. Thank you

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

That is awesome! ❤️🌸

[@TommiGirl]

Katherine, Peonies are my favorite flowers (next to roses and ranunculus), so I am SO THRILLED to see this video! As soon as I'm done watching this video, I'm going to Trader Joe's! Thank you, thank you!!!🥰🤗

Wonderful!🌸🌸

I brought some peonies in a violet flower mug to my mom in the nursing home. My mom asked my daughter to bring it closer under her nose and she said heavenly!

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

That’s lovely. My mom has passed on but she loved peonies too💕🌸

You provided so much great information. Your presentations are always excellent-you get right to the point (not long and drawn out for the sake of making a long video). I also appreciate your openness on pricing. Unfortunately, there are no Trader Joe’s in Hawaii and Hawaii is too warm for growing peonies. Have a nice week, Katherine. Aloha, Karin

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

Aloha Karin. I feel sorry for you living in Hawaii🤣❤️🌸

Hi Katherine,
That's a very informative video. Thanks for sharing.

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

😃❤️🌸

[@barbaraghose8226]

I have white, pink and yellow peonies and they bloom well this year 😊

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

You’re so lucky💕🌸

[@Nanetteb]

No kidding! Trader Joe’s is the best store to buy peonies.

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

Absolutely 😉❤️🌸

Can you put the tight peonies in hot water?

[@KatherineBergmanFloral]

Warm water helps, but since the stems are not woody like roses I would not use hot water.
