Care tips
Keep your flowers looking fantastic for longer with these seven simple tips.
- Use spotlessly clean vases and fresh lukewarm water.
- Stop stems turning sludgy! Take off all leaves that will be below the water.
- Cut a thumb’s length off all stems at a slant with a sharp knife or scissors. This is the best way for the flowers to take up water.
- Always use flower food. It helps buds open and prevents stem wilting.
- Keep your flowers away from sunlight, heat, draughts and fruit.
- Take out faded flowers to keep bouquets fresher for longer.
- Check water levels - some flowers are thirsty! Top up if necessary.
