I was lucky enough this year to save my blooming peonies before the first heavy rainfall. Because I didn’t thin the blossoms, many of the cut flowers had a very small stem. For those, I found a low, wide serving bowl, filled it with water and floated the peonies. How to float peonies? In order to get them to stay up, I simply leaned them against each other as I put them into the water. They are still going strong a week later!
