Flower Care

Here's a flower care instruction list to help ensure the longevity and freshness of your blooms:

  1. Unpacking:

    • Upon receiving your flowers, carefully unpack them from their packaging.
    • Handle the flowers gently to avoid damaging delicate petals and stems.

  2. Trimming:

    • Using sharp scissors or floral shears, trim the stems at a diagonal angle.
    • Trim approximately 1-2 inches off the bottom of each stem to allow for better water absorption.

  3. Watering:

    • Fill a clean vase with room temperature water.
    • Add flower food to the water according to the package instructions.
    • Place the trimmed stems in the vase, ensuring all stems are submerged in water.

  4. Placement:

    • Keep the flower arrangement away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts.
    • Choose a cool, well-ventilated area to display your flowers.

  5. Water Change:

    • Change the water in the vase every 2-3 days to keep it clean and fresh.
    • Before adding fresh water, recut the stems at a diagonal angle to ensure maximum water absorption.

  6. Pruning:

    • Remove any wilted or dead leaves and flowers from the arrangement.
    • This helps maintain the overall appearance and health of the bouquet.

  7. Avoiding Contaminants:

    • Keep the vase and surrounding area clean to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi.
    • Remove any fallen petals or debris from the water to prevent contamination.

  8. Temperature:

    • Maintain a moderate room temperature (around 65-72°F or 18-22°C) for optimal flower longevity.
    • Avoid placing the flowers near heating or cooling vents, as extreme temperatures can shorten their lifespan.

  9. Handling:

    • Handle the flowers with care to avoid bruising or damaging the petals and stems.
    • Avoid touching the blooms excessively, as oils from your hands can accelerate wilting.

  10. Enjoyment:

    • Sit back, relax, and enjoy the beauty of your freshly cut flowers!
    • With proper care, your blooms should last for several days, brightening your home or workspace with their natural beauty.

Following these flower care instructions will help extend the life of your floral arrangements, allowing you to enjoy their beauty for as long as possible.
