Watering Tips

Your floral arrangement should last for about 1 week with proper care. Aim to change the water out every 2-3 days! Changing the water frequently minimizes bacteria buildup within your vase.

Avoid Sunlight

Contrary to what you might think, your flowers will do best in indirect sunlight or indoor lighting. We don’t want to encourage floral “maturing”, which sunlight will do!

Cut Stems at an Angle

When your floral arrangement comes home for the first time, take at least 3cm (1″) off all stems, making a slanted cut with a sharp knife or very sharp scissors. Do this each time you change out your water, too!
