Flower Care Instructions

  • When your bouquet arrives, some blooms may be a little tired from the journey. This is completely normal, simply follow these care instructions and your bouquet will perk up soon. For quick recovery, cut stems, add flower food and stand in deep water for a few hours prior to arranging in a vase.

  • Choose a clean vase and use fresh lukewarm water. Avoid metal containers as they neutralise the effects of flower food.
  • Add all of the flower food provided, following the guidelines on the sachet.  You won't receive flower food with the orchids as they don't require this and actually reduces their vaselife.
  • Carefully remove the packaging from the base of the flowers.

 

  • Strip off all leaves that fall below the water line, as these will decompose and contaminate the water.
  • Cut 2 - 3cm off all stems using a clean sharp knife or scissors. Cut at a sharp angle so the stem can absorb water more effectively and place immediately in water. Avoid cutting through nodes on the flower stems.
  • Display the flowers in a cool, light location away from draughts, direct sunlight, radiators and fresh fruit.
  • Remember to top up the vase water daily and remove faded flowers as they occur.
  • To refresh your flowers re-cut the stems every 2 – 3 days, and replace in fresh lukewarm water.
