Description
This large double peony stem brings the full, ruffled bloom of the garden favourite indoors without any of the upkeep. Standing at 95cm, it makes a tall single stem for a floor vase or a generous jug, with two densely layered heads that mimic the way a real peony opens in early summer. The buttermilk cream tone sits softly against most walls and furnishings, warm rather than stark, so it reads as natural in daylight and under lamplight alike.
The petals are cut and shaped in graduated sizes, tightly packed at the centre and loosening towards the outer edge, so each artificial peony holds the rounded, slightly blousy shape the flower is known for. Leaves run along the moulded stem in a deep green, with veining pressed into the surface for a closer likeness. Built from plastic throughout, this faux peony keeps its form and colour year after year, and the wired stem can be gently bent to angle the heads or adjust the height in a vase.
Use a single stem in a slim bottle vase for a pared-back look, or group three to five together for a fuller arrangement on a mantel, hall table or windowsill. It needs no water and no light, so it works equally well in a dim corner or a bright bay window. To keep it looking its best, dust the petals now and then with a soft brush or a hairdryer on a cool setting. There is no wilting, no dropping and no seasonal wait for these blooms.

Frequently Asked
Does it look like a real peony?
Yes. The heads are built from graduated petals packed tightly at the centre, and the leaves carry pressed veining, so at normal viewing distance it reads as a fresh bloom.
Can I arrange or reshape the stem?
The stem is wired, so you can bend it gently to angle the heads, adjust the height in a vase or curve it to suit a particular spot.
How do I clean it?
Dust the petals and leaves occasionally with a soft brush, a cool hairdryer setting or a light shake. Avoid soaking the heads, as trapped water can leave marks.
Does it need water or light?
No. This faux peony needs neither water nor sunlight, so it suits shaded corners and rooms you do not use every day.
Will the cream colour fade?
The buttermilk tone holds well indoors. To keep it even, we suggest keeping it out of long spells of harsh direct sun, which can lighten any coloured material over time.
