Cut flower care instructions

To keep your flowers and plants looking wonderful for longer, make sure they are not placed near radiators, devices which give off heat or televisions. Display your arrangement in a cool spot and avoid intensely hot or cold locations.

Verify the water supply immediately upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, fully submerge the stem ends under the water and cut them at a 45° angle using a pruner, scissors or knife. Trimming your flower stems at a 45 degree angle is going to guarantee that they have sufficient surface area to take in water and that they don't stand directly on the bottom of the vase.

Wedding flowers

Modern wedding centerpieces are a contemporary way to form the theme of your wedding. An idea that works well for the most modern arrangements is to submerge the whole flower in water. This can be accomplished with roses, cymbidium orchids and tulips.

When you are visiting the wedding florist, check carefully the items in their display cases. If the products in the display cases look fresh it is usually a good indication that they strive to provide a high standard of their services.
