Cut flower care instructions

Verify the water supply instantly upon arrival. Fill a bowl or sink with water, fully submerge the stem ends under the water and cut them at a 45 degree angle using a knife, pruner or scissors. Trimming your flower stems at a 45-degree angle will ensure that they have plenty of surface area to take in water and that they don't stand flat on the bottom of the vase.

Check vase water level every other day. Add water with flower food as required. If the water gets cloudy, change the entire vase water with new preservative water. Change foliage that will sink under the water line in your vase. Regulary re cut stem bottoms half inch. This fresh cut is the reason for good water uptake through the flower stem.
