GREENSBORO, NC – May 12, 2021 – On any given day, The Fresh Market’s floral department is blooming with seasonal and year-round flowers and plants from best-selling, fresh orchids to premium long-stemmed roses, bright bouquets, potted bulbs and more. The specialty grocer’s careful curation strategy allows them to bring in the freshest, most vibrant florals throughout the year including new Command Performance Peony flowers for the Spring that are so exclusive, they will only be available at The Fresh Market for an extremely limited time.

Grown in Southwest France in the region of Gironde, near the city of Bordeaux, Command Performance Peonies are full-petaled and among the largest of all peony varieties with blossoms as large as 20 centimeters. The petals start out hot pink and change every day transitioning to an antique pink color during the blooming process. At first, the peony’s buds will appear bulky, but they will soon transform into big, beautiful flowers treating you to a spectacular metamorphosis of colors along the way.

“We’re so excited to be able to offer these special flowers for our guests this year. Not only are they fun to watch, but they also have a long vase life so you can enjoy them for a longer period of time,” said Jo Ann Whitley, Director of Floral at The Fresh Market.

The Fresh Market is one of the only retailers on the East Coast offering Command Performance Peonies at its stores during this peak season. They will be available in bunches of three beginning on May 19th while supplies last.
