RosesbyDesign suggests that you follow these important care instructions to ensure that your flowers stay happy and healthy for longer!
-
The first 24 hours is the most crucial period, affecting the longevity of your roses, flowers absorb half the water they require to survive during this time.
-
Remove the water pouches from the flower stem ends
-
Remove any foliage (leaves) that will sit below the water line in the vase
-
Cut the stems on an angle with a pair of sharp scissors about 3-4cm off the bottom of each stem – this will enable the roses to drink properly from the water – do not break or flatten the stems
-
Ensure the vase you use is completely clean
-
Use tepid water – at this temperature oxygen is drawn up more easily through the stems
-
Add the flower preservative – one sachet per ½ litre of water
-
Change the water in the vase every second day
If roses start to droop, add ice cubes to clean water and
recut stems
