Peonies have a short and dramatic season, and nobody knows this better than a bride or florist who is planning a wedding around them. Here in our zone there is about a 2 week variance in when they bloom... sometimes the middle of May, sometimes not until Memorial Day.
If you want to have a peony filled wedding, we recommend setting the wedding date for AFTER peony season and then using this method to store peonies until the big day (up to two months). Optimal storage time is about a month, but I've had success keeping them for two months with this method.
Or perhaps you just want to be able to enjoy their season a bit longer, space out the peony glory a little.
Folklore has it that somebody's grandma always had a fresh peony bouquet at Thanksgiving, and her method was to wrap them in newspaper. We've tried that as well, and it works beautifully, but it didn't extend the life of the flowers beyond that of the paper towel method.
