Place the vase in a warm place. This will speed up the opening of your peonies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long does a peony last in a vase?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A peony in a vase lasts 5 to 7 days when received in bud stage. Temperature conditions directly affect the vase life of flowers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I keep my peonies for a few more days in bud?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes. You can take the flowers, put them inside a plastic bag and leave them in the lower part of the refrigerator (where the vegetables go). This will help to keep them for about 2 to 3 more days in their button state. Remember that the more time they spend in the refrigerator, the shorter their flower life will be.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How can I make my flowers last longer in a vase?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Peonies like all flowers suffer from heat. To help them last longer, you can cut the stem every two days about 2 cm and change the water in the vase. At the same time, you can add 2 or 3 ice cubes to the vase to cool the water and help hydrate it. The other option is to take the vase outdoors at night to allow the flowers to breathe.
