Peony - RED Red Sarah -10 Stems

From a rich, dark crimson bud to a spectacular magenta-red explosion – a proper late-season crown jewel!

If you’re looking for a dramatic burst of intense colour to wrap up your spring designs, meet Red Sarah! While her famous cousin Sarah Bernhardt owns the pastel pink world, Red Sarah steps onto the stage with an unapologetic, fierce palette of deep scarlet bordering on rich, dark pink. As these heavy buds expand, they unpack layer after layer of ruffled, double petals that catch the light beautifully. It’s like watching a luxurious velvet curtain rise right on your workbench – and honestly, we’re here for it. Why not add some deep, moody romance to your next setup?

This striking variety is a dream choice for rich, high-contrast bridal bouquets, dramatic summer event installations, or any florist looking to offer a premium, deep-toned focal flower that breaks away from traditional pastels. These blooms are full of personality – they’re bold, opulent, and carry a beautiful, light scent.

Now, a little heads-up on handling this crimson beauty – because Red Sarah is packed with an incredibly dense count of petals, she loves to burst open quickly once she settles into a warm room. If you’re prepping for a big weekend wedding or event and need to keep her in check, make sure to store the stems somewhere cool, dark, and dry. Otherwise, give them a deep drink in cool water, and they’ll reward you with a spectacular show of unfolding luxury.

Top Tips for Peony Conditioning

When your UK grown peonies arrive, trim the stems at an angle and pop them into clean water with a conditioning treatment like Pro 2 (we love this stuff, it slows that popping right down!). Remove any leaves below the waterline, and let them hydrate somewhere cool. If you want to hold them back a day or two, Pro 2 is the way!
