    ○ To Enjoy watching your flowers bloom for as long as possible, follow these tips:

    TOP UP THE WATER

    Remember the more flowers in the arrangement the more water they’ll consume, so check the water level in your vase daily and keep it topped up. Flowers are thirsty beings, some varieties more so than others, so this is key to keeping them looking their best for longer. Ideally the vase should always be three-quarters full of water. Don’t forget to change the water completely after day two and to clean the vase thoroughly before refilling. This simple practice can really help extend the vase life of your flowers.

    CUT (AND RECUT) THE STEMS
    To enable your flowers to take up as much water as possible, you’ll need to cut the stems daily. To get the best cut, use a sharp knife or scissors and cut at an angle. This will give the stems more surface area to take up water. Never use blunt blades as these can damage the stems. When re-cutting your stems take this opportunity to remove any wilted foliage faded blooms.

    CHOOSE WHERE TO DISPLAY YOUR FLOWERS WISELY
    Finding the perfect environment for your flowers will help them flourish for longer. Always display your blooms away from direct sunlight or heat sources such as radiators. Keep them away from the fruit bowl too. This is because some fruits, bananas especially, emit ethylene gas which causes flowers to deteriorate quickly.

    TAKE CARE WITH CHILDREN AND PETS
    Some flowers can be harmful if consumed. Lilies, both the petals and pollen, can be extremely toxic to cats. Care should be taken to keep all flowers and foliage out of the reach of children and pets.
