FLOWER CARE: The Ultimate Guide to Caring for Your Fresh Flowers

Intro:There’s nothing quite like the joy of receiving fresh flowers. Whether it’s a romantic bouquet, a birthday surprise, or simply a little treat for yourself, flowers brighten any space. But how do you keep them looking fresh and vibrant for as long as possible? Here’s our guide to proper flower care.

Tips:

  1. Trim the Stems – Cut about an inch off the stems at a 45° angle before placing them in water. This helps the flowers drink better.

  2. Use Clean Water & Vase – Change the water every two days and rinse the vase to prevent bacteria.

  3. Remove Extra Leaves – Any leaves below the waterline should be removed to keep the water clean.

  4. Keep Them Cool – Flowers last longer away from direct sunlight, heaters, and fruit (fruit releases ethylene gas which speeds wilting).

  5. Flower Food is Your Friend – Use the packet we provide with every bouquet to nourish your flowers.

Closing Call-to-Action:Want flowers that last? All of our bouquets are handpicked daily and wrapped with care so you can enjoy them longer.
