How do I care for my flowers?
- Remove any foliage that will sit below the water line & give the stems a fresh cut before putting them in a clean vase. An inch or two will do!
- Make sure to use a clean vase for your flowers to rest in.
- Add your provided floral food and be sure to replace your water every 1-2 days.
- Keep blooms away from heat sources, direct sunlight & bowls of fresh fruit.
- The special beauty of flowers is that they do not last forever. Each flower has a different vase life, so don't be afraid to pull out tired blooms and re-arrange your bouquet to keep it looking as fresh as possible for as long as possible!
