What do peonies mean?
In the language of flowers, the peony has a very special symbolism. Like the rose, the peony rose represents love and affection. But unlike its thorny sister, the peony does not have these at all. As a result, she has become the symbol of healing and motherly love. This symbolism makes her the ideal Mother's Day gift!

What are peonies?
Peonies are the favorite flowers of many. But why exactly? This popularity can be explained by two factors. On the one hand by the fact that the peony season is short: they bloom only takes place in May and June. And on the other hand by the fact that hardly any other flowers exist with such large flowers. The peony has six bracts. These are very large and rose-like compared to other flowers. Moreover, they have very variable sepals (two to nine, depending on the species) and petals (four to thirteen).

Peonies: what colours are there?
The petals of the peony are mainly found in shades of pink and red. But since there are 32 varieties, you can also find peonies in white or even yellow peonies. In Europe, the peony called “Paeonia officinalis” is the most common. The sepals are red or pink with yellow stamens inside. By the way, did you know that peonies can sometimes change colour? But why is that? With some varieties of peonies, you can observe a beautiful colour change from pink to salmon to cream, as for example with the "Coral Sunset". The name "Sunset" comes from the fact that it also applies to the dying off of the colorful flower: the closer the peony comes to wilting, the more pigmentation it loses.
