Cut flower care instructions
Remove all foliage and leaves that will be under the water in the vase so they will not rot. Leave the thornless roses packed in bunches and cut about one-half of an inch off of the bottom of the stems and after that put them in water. When you use the white roses, trim the stems one more time and slowly remove any loose or discolored outer petals.
Check the water supply straightaway upon arrival. Fill a sink or bowl with water, completely place the stem ends underwater and cut them at a 45-degree angle using a pocket pruner, scissors or knife. Cutting your flower stems at a 45 degree angle is going to guarantee that they have plenty of surface area to receive water and that they don't sit straight on the bottom of the vase.
Wedding flowers
If you want to save money on flowers for wedding use flowers that are available, in season and ready. They cost less than blooms that are out of season. Remember that all flowers cost more during the month of February because of Valentine's Day.
Modern wedding centerpieces are a great way to create the theme of your wedding. The basic idea that works well for the most modern arrangements is to submerge the whole flower in water. You can try this with tulips, cymbidium orchids and roses.
Sympathy flowers
sympathy roses and Sympathy flowers are usually sent to the funeral home, mortuary or church. Most funeral homes, mortuaries and churches have a wake, visitation or viewing where friends and associates come to pay their respects. Appropriate sympathy flower manners are to send sympathy plants or Sympathy Baskets to the mortuary, funeral home or church by the first visitation hours.
Wreaths are Suitable for delivery to the church, mortuary or funeral home. These wonderful wreaths are displayed on a stand and make wonderful presentation.
