Cut flower care instructions

Check vase water level almost every day. Add water with flower food as recomended. If the water turns cloudy, replace the entire vase water with fresh preservative water. Remove foliage that will fall under the water level in your vase. Often re cut stems 1/2". This fresh cut guarantees good water flow through the flower stem.

Control the water supply straightaway upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, completely place the stems under the water and cut them at a 45-degree angle using a scissors, precision secateur or knife. Trimming your flower stem ends at a 45 degree angle will guarantee that they have plenty of surface area to receive water and that they don't lay directly on the bottom of the vase.

Wedding flowers

Decide to stick with the pros. Even if you're a plant expert, you are still going to be too busy in the days before your wedding and on the day of your big event to handle the floral arrangements yourself.

If you want to save some money on your wedding flowers use flowers that are in season, available and ready. They cost less than the ones that are out of season. Do not forget that all flowers cost more in the month of February because of Valentine's Day.

Sympathy flowers

Sympathy flowers and sympathy roses are normally sent to the mortuary, church or funeral home. Most mortuaries, churches and funeral homes have a wake, viewing or visitation where friends and associates come to pay their respects. Proper sympathy flower etiquette is to send Sympathy Baskets or Sympathy plants to the church, mortuary or funeral home by the initial visitation hours.

Sympathy Sprays are Suitable for delivery to the church, mortuary or funeral home. These great specialty arrangements are displayed on a stand and make great presentation.
