The packaging for shipping was well done. I liked it. I used to have peonies in the yard, so I know how it is in real life. Compared to the real plant, it does look silk flower and is not real. But, I placed it in corner of a hallway, where it does not get direct sunlight, so it is perfect for my purpose. I would like another one for the bedroom. I recommend this if you are placing it in not direct sunlight.

Very beautiful

Beautiful and very life-like
