Floral Care Pointers:
Whilst every effort is made to ensure the best possible floral quality when we cut or pick produce, it should be noted that seasonal flora is living material. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed to last or act in a specific way, because so much is dependent on the plants' reactions to the conditions/environment in which it is displayed. However there are some ways in which seasonal flora can be helped to last longer and ensure the expected outcome for whatever you are trying to do:
- Re-cut flowers stems if they are taken out of water for transporting, so that fresh ends are left to take up water/nutrients.
- Change vase water at least every 3 days (more frequently in hot weather), recutting flower stems to aid water take-up and removing dead flowers.
- Place your flowers out of direct sunlight and heat. Most flowers and flora will last longest in a cooler environment, where they are not being put under undue stress.
- Deadhead some multi-flower stems to encourage other flower heads to open.
