Care For Vase Arrangements

Keep the vase full of fresh water. If possible empty the water out daily and replace with fresh tap water. Also if possible remove each flower and cut 1″-2″ off of each flower with a sharp knife then replace into the fresh water immedietely. If lilies are included in your arrangement, as they open use a paper towel to remove the pollen so it does not fall onto the surface the flowers are placed on.

Keep flowers in a cool spot away from any heating or air conditioning draft, direct sunlight or heat from televisions and appliances.

                                       

Care For Arrangements In Foam

Care For Wrapped or Boxed Flowers

Keep your flowers in a cool place out or direct sunlight. Never leave flowers in a vehicle, treat them as you would treat ice cream. Before arranging them clean your vase or container with bleach or an antibacterial soap or solution and wash thoroughly. Fill the vase with water and the flower solution provided. (Be sure to follow the solution mix on the back of the package as too much solution could harm the flowers.) Cut 1″-2″ off of each flower with a sharp knife and immediately place in the vase. Follow the care for vase arrangements and enjoy.
