Fresh Cut Flowers & Arrangements

Simply one of the nicest choices! A mixed bouquet of fresh cut flowers in the colors of your choice or for an elegant alternative - send a white on white arrangement!

You've just received a gorgeous bouquet of colorful, fragrant flowers. Now what? Here are some tips for keeping your flowers beautiful longer.

• Re-cut your flower stems at an angle under lukewarm water using a sharp knife.

• Remove any leaves from the bottom of the stem as leaves should never be covered with water.

• Arrange each flower separately into a vase or container filled with room temperature water and floral preservative. (if no preservative is available, use a drop of bleach)

• Empty and refill the vase or container with clean water each day.

• For lilies & gladioli add a tablespoon of white vinegar to the water.

• For roses & snapdragons add a pinch of salt to the water.

• You can reduce murky water by adding one aspirin tablet.

• Spray a fine mist of water on leaves & blossoms during hot weather.

• Place your bouquet in a cool location, and away from direct sunlight, electrical appliances and drafts.
