Maintenance

for fresh flower boxes

1. Location:

Please ensure that you store your flower box in a cool location that is shielded from direct sunlight.

It's also important to keep it away from cold air that may be blown by an air conditioning unit.

2. Watering

It is crucial to provide your flower box with daily hydration. You can achieve this by using a watering-can with a pointed spout. Slowly pour approximately 150-250ml of water into the middle of the box, between the flowers, until the green floral foam becomes moist. By following this method, you can help maintain the freshness and vibrancy of your flowers for a longer duration.

Alternatively, you have the option to remove the flowers from the box, soak the green floral foam in water, and then return the flowers to their original position. This approach will help prevent the box from getting wet and potentially causing damage to the arrangement. Remember to water the flowers on a daily basis to ensure their longevity and freshness.

Transporting flowers requires careful handling to prevent any damage to their delicate petals. It is advisable to hold the bouquet with both hands during transportation to avoid friction between the paper bag handles and the flowers, which may lead to yellowing or bruising.

1. Without unwrapping the bouquet

For easy maintenance without unwrapping, keep the flowers in a cool location, away from direct sunlight or cold air from air conditioners. Spritzing a light mist of water, especially for hydrangeas, helps to keep them hydrated and fresh.

Without unwrapping it, the flowers can retain their optimal condition for approximately 2 to 3 days.

2. Unwrapping the bouquet

If desired, you can extend the lifespan of the flowers by carefully unwrapping the bouquet and placing them in a suitable container at home. This method can help them last for around 3 to 4 days before wilting.

For maintenance with unwrapping, use clean, sharp scissors to make a diagonal (approximately 45 degrees) cut of about 2-3 cm on the stems. Remember to maintain a cool environment for the flowers and place the flowers in a clean vase filled halfway with fresh water, away from direct sunlight and cold air to ensure their longevity. Change the water every two days, making a fresh diagonal cut on the stems each time.
