Peony Care
To care for cut flowers, begin by trimming about half an inch off the bottoms of the stems and removing any foliage that may be submerged in the vase. Place them in a vase with water and flower food. Keep them in a warm room to make the blossoms open faster; alternately, slow their progression by keeping them in a dark, cool space. Keep them out of the direct sunlig ht and change out the water regularly.
