Bouquet Care

Flower care instructions

  1. Carefully remove all packaging from flowers
  2. Using a sharp clean blade or scissors carefully trim ends by cutting 3-5cms from the stems
  3. Remove any foliage which falls beneath the water line level as this will decompose and contaminate the water
  4. Place stems in a clean vase or container filled with clean fresh water
  5. Do not use metal containers as they can neutralise the effects of the flower food
  6. Add flower food following the guidelines on the reverse of the sachet
  7. Keep the flowers away from ripening fruit. Place in a cool position away from direct sunlight and heat
  8. Top up with fresh water when necessary
  9. For freshness, some flowers are sent in bud ready to open
  • Lily/Amaryllis pollen can stain clothing, furniture etc. In case of contact, dab affected area gently with sticky tape which should lift pollen away. DO NOT RUB OFF OR USE WATER

  • Mixed bouquets: For quick recovery results cut stems, add flower food and stand in deep water for 12 hours prior to arranging in vase
  • Tulips: After trimming place stems in cold water for 1 hour to re-hydrate prior to final arranging
