Our florists hand-tie it in our Claremont studio, where we have been making flowers since 1999, and we deliver it the same day across Cape Town when you order before 12pm. Each stem is 50 cm long and export quality, sent in bud with its own foliage and wrapped in white paper with a soft gold leaf print. More than 5,800 reviews across Loox, Google and Trustpilot are why people trust us with the occasions that matter most.

That is how Bowl of Cream begins. Over the next few days the buds loosen, show a soft ivory, and then open into full, cupped, creamy white blooms packed with layer upon layer of petals. Bowl of Cream was bred in the United States in the 1960s and is still one of the best-loved white peonies in the world for exactly this reason: the flowers are big, round and generous, like the name. With twenty stems, every day looks a little different, and by the end of the week you have a dome of cream that no single bunch of roses can match.

That short season is what makes twenty of them feel like an event rather than a delivery. This is a limited edition bouquet, and we make it only while we can source Bowl of Cream stems that meet our standard. When the season ends, it is gone until next year.

If you do not have one big enough, split the bouquet between two vases. Trim the stems at an angle, add the flower food sachet, and remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline. Change the water and re-trim every two days, and keep the flowers out of direct sun and away from ripening fruit. To coax a slow bud, roll it gently between your fingers or stand the stems in slightly warmer water for an hour. With this care, peonies last around seven days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhite Peonies for Weddings, Anniversaries and Milestones\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwenty white peonies are made for the moments people remember.
