Flower Care Tips

Trim the stems
Cut the stems at an angle and remove about 2–3 cm from the bottom. Do this every 2–3 days to help the flowers drink water better.

Use clean water
Change the water every 2–3 days and rinse your vase before refilling. Clean water helps your flowers last longer.

Add flower food
Use the flower food provided to keep your blooms fresh. You can also make your own with a little sugar and a drop of bleach.

Keep them cool
Place your flowers in a cool spot, away from direct sunlight, heat, and draughts. Flowers last best between 18–22°C.

Remove wilted blooms
Take out any dying flowers and leaves in the water. This keeps the rest of the bouquet fresh.

Keep away from fruit
Avoid placing flowers near fruit, as it can make them wilt faster.
