Cut flower care instructions

Change all leaves and foliage that might sit below the water line in the vase that they will not rot. Leave the thornless roses packed in bunches and trim about one-half of an inch off of the bottom of the stems and afterwards put them in water. When you use the red rosebuds, cut the stems over again and slowly remove any discolored or loose outer petals.

Verify the water supply immediately upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, completely plunge the stems under the water and cut them at a 45° angle using a scissors, knife or precision secateur. Cutting your flower stem ends at a 45-degree angle is going to ensure that they have adequate surface area to absorb water and that they don't lay directly on the bottom of the vase.
