Cut flower care instructions

Ensure the water supply right away upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, completely submerge the stem ends under the water and cut them at a 45° angle using a scissors, knife or pruner. Cutting your flower stems at a 45 degree angle is going to ensure that they have sufficient surface area to absorb water and that they don't stand flat on the bottom of the vase.

Make sure that the container, vase or liner are filled with fresh water. For perfect results, you should use floral preservative, if provided. Combine flower food with moderately warm water, in the proportion advised on the case. Although the container has floral foam, it is better to keep the water level high to support long lasting flowers.

Wedding flowers
