How to Care for Your Flowers

Follow these simple care instructions to ensure your flowers stay fresh and beautiful for as long as possible. Each arrangement type requires specific care for optimal longevity.

Flower Bouquets

Hand-tied bouquets require immediate attention upon arrival to ensure maximum freshness.

Remove packaging carefully and trim 2-3 cm off stems at a 45-degree angle
Fill a clean vase with room temperature water and add flower food
Remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline
Change water every 2-3 days and re-trim stems
Keep away from direct sunlight and air conditioning

Pro Tip: Never place fresh bouquets near fruit bowls as ripening fruits release ethylene gas which can speed up flower aging.

Flower Boxes

Boxed arrangements are designed for immediate impact and require specific care to maintain their beauty.

Open the box immediately upon receipt
If flowers come with water tubes, keep them intact
Mist flowers lightly with water if they feel dry
Keep in a cool place away from direct heat
Follow included care card for specific arrangement instructions

Pro Tip: For longer-lasting boxed arrangements, maintain room temperature between 18-22°C (65-72°F).

Flowers in a Vase

Pre-arranged vase flowers are ready to display but need proper maintenance to stay fresh.

Place vase in a cool spot away from direct sunlight
Top up water daily to maintain proper level
Change water completely every 3 days
Remove any wilted flowers promptly
Keep away from drafts and heat sources

Pro Tip: Clean your vase thoroughly with mild bleach solution between arrangements to prevent bacterial growth.

Flower Baskets

Basket arrangements combine the beauty of flowers with decorative containers for a lasting display.

Check water/foam moisture level daily
Water carefully to maintain foam saturation
Keep basket away from direct sunlight
Remove wilted flowers gently to maintain shape
Protect basket material from excess moisture

Pro Tip: To water floral foam arrangements, slowly pour water into the foam until it stops absorbing - don't oversaturate.
