from what i've heard, you can spend a lot of money to have them flown in otherwise, they're in season until mid-june.

I heard they sort of die off in the beginning-middle of June, but if you really want them, some florists can get them for you if your willing to pay. I'm really upset because I REALLY wanted peonies..I'm going to start looking for quotes, so I'll let you know!

i love peonies, but they are pretty far out of season by August. some florists will import them but then they are picked early, frozen, and they arrive beat up and not as beautiful as the kind you see when they are allowed to grow naturally.

i'd be using peonies if they were in season, but it's not worth the expense for sup-par quality flowers IMO

Unfortunately, no.

A florist can import them, but you'll be paying a pretty penny for it. Peonies have a short season and that season ends around June.

NO!
They are only May/Jun flowers. Even if you get a florist that will charge you ALOT for them... it usually isn't worth it. They are not good quality and they are not fully opened. They also don't last.

A good florist will recommend similar flowers like Garden roses. They look very similar.

You can probably get them but it may cost a little more YOu can also put ranuculus that is similar to peonies. You can also ask your florist to get you good quality silk peony.
