Cut flower care instructions

Check the water supply at once upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, completely place the stem ends under the water and cut them at a 45-degree angle using a knife, pocket pruner or scissors. Cutting your flower stems at a 45 degree angle is going to make sure that they have plenty of surface area to receive water and that they don't stand flat on the bottom of the vase.

Ensure that the vase, liner or container are filled with fresh water. For best results, you must use floral preservative, if you have it. Combine flower food with room temperature water, in the proportion advised on the box. Although the container has floral foam, it is better to keep the water level high to support long lasting flowers.
