Flower Care

You’ve just received a gorgeous bouquet of colourful, fragrant flowers. Now what? Here are some tips for keeping your flowers beautiful longer.

• When your flowers arrive as a cut flower bouquet:

• Re-cut your flower stems on an angle using a sharp knife.
• Remove any leaves from the bottom of the stem as leaves should never be covered with water.
• Arrange the flowers in a vase or container filled with room temperature water and floral preservative.

• Empty and refill the vase or container with clean water each day.

• Spray a fine mist of water on the leaves and blossoms during hot weather.

• Place your bouquet in a cool location, away from direct sunlight, electrical appliances and drafts.

• Keep them in a cool spot (65 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit: 18 to 22 degrees Celsius).

• When your flowers arrive in wet foam, Keep the floral foam soaked in water. Adding water daily.

• When your flowers are arranged in water, Keep the vase filed with water. If the water becomes cloudy replace it entirely.
