Flower meanings
Peony: good fortune and a happy relationship
In Chinese tradition the peony is the "king of flowers", a symbol of honour, wealth and a happy marriage. Its full, layered bloom stands for a life that keeps opening into more.
What a peony looks like
Layer on layer of loose, ruffled petals packed into a soft globe, wider than a rose and far less formal. The bloom looks like it is still mid-opening even when fully out, which is exactly the feeling it is meant to give.
When people send peonys
Weddings, engagements, housewarmings and milestone birthdays. Peonies are the flower people call luxurious without being able to say why, so they work when you want the gesture to feel generous.
