First off, let me say these Mkono peonies are *chef's kiss* for anyone who loves flowers but hates the upkeep. I styled them in a vintage milk glass vase on my coffee table, and guests keep asking if they’re real—that’s how convincing the silk petals and wired stems are!

The Good: The 2-bundle set lets you create a lush arrangement (I twisted the bendable stems together for a fuller look). The pink hue is soft and natural, not Barbie-doll garish. They survived my cat’s swatting attempts (unlike my last real bouquet) and still look flawless after dusting with a hairdryer on cool setting.

Watch Out: Shipping squished a few petals—I had to gently fluff them back up. They’re smaller than I expected (about 12” tall), so don’t expect dramatic floor-vase drama. One stem arrived slightly bent, but the wire inside made reshaping easy.

Pro Tip: Perfect for weddings (used these as aisle decor—zero wilting panic!) or small spaces like bathroom counters. Skip if you want pre-arranged bouquets; these require light styling. Worth every penny for no-water, no-fuss beauty!
