Cut flower care instructions
Make sure that the container, vase or liner are filled with fresh water. For best results, it is better to use floral preservative, if you have it. Combine flower food with lukewarm 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.
Control vase water level often. Add water with flower food as required. If the water becomes cloudy, substitute the entire vase water with new preservative water. Remove foliage that will fall below the water line in your vase. Every other day re cut stem bottoms 1/2". The fresh cut controls good water uptake through the flower stem.
