Flower Aftercare: How to keep your flowers fresher for longer.

You have just brought home one of our gorgeous bouquets- now lets make sure it stays fresh and vibrant for as long as possible.

Follow our simple steps to give your flowers the best care:

  1. Unwrap with care-

    As soon as you get your flowers home, remove any packaging, string and let them breathe.

  2. Trim the stems-

    Using clean, sharp secateurs, cut 1-2cm off each stem at a 45’ angle. This helps them to absorb water more effectively. Re-trim every couple of days to keep them drinking well.

  3. Clean Vase, Fresh water-

    Always use a thoroughly cleaned vase to prevent bacteria. Fill it with fresh lukewarm water. Change the water ever 2-3 days.

  4. Remove lower leaves-

    Make sure there are no leaves below the waterline. Clean stems= clean water.

  5. Perfect Spot, not too hot-

    Keep your flowers in a cool place away from direct sunlight or radiators.

  6. Keep an eye on them-

    Remove any wilting flowers or leaves to stop the mould spreading. Top up the water and enjoy the evolving beauty of your arrangement.
