The Psychology of Colour in Floristry: The Impact of 'Coral Charm' Peonies 

In the world of British floristry, colour plays a crucial role not just in the aesthetic design of arrangements, but also in influencing human emotions and behaviours. The 'Coral Charm' peony, celebrated for its vibrant hues that transition from a deep coral to a soft cream, offers a compelling insight into the psychological effects of colour in floral arrangements. At KS Flowers in Northampton, we understand how the unique colours of these peonies can enhance moods and atmospheres, making them a firm favourite for various occasions. 

Understanding Colour Psychology 

Colour psychology explores how colours affect our perceptions and behaviours. At KS Flowers, we utilise this knowledge to craft floral arrangements that evoke specific emotions and set the desired mood:


  • Coral: A lively blend of orange, red, and pink tones, coral is invigorating and uplifting. It's often associated with warmth, joy, and optimism, making it an ideal choice for bouquets intended to celebrate or cheer.
  • Cream: As 'Coral Charm' peonies mature to cream, they exude calmness, elegance, and purity. Cream tones in floral arrangements bring a sense of comfort and sophistication, suitable for subdued or formal occasions.

The Emotional Impact of 'Coral Charm' Peonies 

  • Energizing and Uplifting: The vibrant coral shade of 'Coral Charm' peonies is perfect for bouquets designed to energize and uplift. Ideal for celebrations such as birthdays, graduations, or any occasion that calls for a joyful atmosphere.
  • Soothing and Calming: As the blooms transition to a creamy hue, they become more suited for settings that require a calming presence. This makes them ideal for places such as hospitals, wellness centres, or in arrangements meant to convey sympathy.
  • Enhancing Well-Being: Being surrounded by beautiful flowers, especially those like 'Coral Charm' peonies which undergo significant colour changes, can boost emotional health and alleviate stress. Their presence can uplift spirits and contribute to a positive environment.
