Peony season is upon us, bringing with it those coveted blooms that elevate any arrangement to breathtaking heights. Details Flowers knows the power a perfect peony holds, and that's why its partnering with Alaska Peony Cooperative to bring the best of the best each year.
Finding top-quality peonies can be a challenge. Thankfully, Alaska Peony Cooperative is here to change the game. Its member farms, nestled in Alaska's unique climate, cultivate exceptional peonies known for:
- Unparalleled Beauty: Lush blooms bursting with color and fragrance make Alaska Peony Cooperative's peonies stand out. Expect vibrant hues, impressive size and those signature, unforgettable ruffles.
- Peak Season Perfection: Peonies have a fleeting window of availability. Through the partnership, you'll have access to these beauties during their prime (typically July and August), guaranteeing the freshest, most magnificent blooms for your clients.
- Sustainable Practices: Alaska Peony Cooperative prioritizes eco-friendly growing methods. You can offer these peonies with confidence, knowing they were produced responsibly.
Why Alaskan-grown peonies are perfection:
- Perfect Chilling: Peonies require a period of cold temperatures (called chilling) to stimulate flower bud development. Alaska's long, cold winters provide the ideal natural chilling period, ensuring strong bud formation and, ultimately, larger, more robust blooms.
- Cool Summer Nights: While Alaska has long days during the summer, the nights tend to be quite cool. This helps to slow down the growth process of the peonies, allowing the blooms to develop more slowly and fully, resulting in larger, stronger flowers with vibrant colors. In warmer climates, peonies might develop faster with smaller blooms.
- Limited Pest and Disease Pressure: Alaska's cold climate also helps limit the presence of pests and diseases that can damage peonies. This reduces the need for harsh chemicals and allows growers to focus on sustainable practices, which can contribute to the overall health and quality of the flowers.
- Freshness to Market: Due to Alaska's unique location, peonies can be harvested at their peak and shipped quickly to the lower 48 states. This minimizes transportation time and ensures florists receive the freshest possible blooms.
Alaska's combination of cold winters, cool summers and minimal pest pressure creates an ideal environment for growing high-quality peonies with large, vibrant blooms and a longer vase life.
