FLOWER CARE

Our wrapped bouquets are crafted with care using a mix of beautiful fresh flowers and greenery, ensuring each arrangement is a delightful expression of nature's beauty. Please note that due to shipping, the flowers may arrive slightly wilted and will benefit from immediate hydration. (We always include extra stems to account for any that didn't make it.)

Follow these steps to revive and maintain your bouquets freshness:

BURLAP-WRAPPED BOUQUETS

​

Step 1: Unwrap Your Bouquet
Upon receiving your bouquet, carefully remove it from its burlap and tissue paper wrapping. Retain the twine or tape securing the bouquet's design.

​

Step 2: Choose the Perfect Vase
If you haven't ordered a vase with your bouquet, find a clean vessel from your collection. Glass jars, pots, pitchers, or even repurposed kitchen items work beautifully. Ensure the vase is tall enough for the flowers to stand upright and has enough room for them to bloom comfortably.

​

Step 3: Trim and Prep Your Stems
Trim the stems at a 45˚ angle, allowing each flower to sit about 1/2" above the vase rim. This ensures proper hydration and optimal display. Even if you love the bouquet's height upon arrival, a quick trim enhances water absorption for lasting freshness.

​

Step 4: Hydrate Your Flowers
Fill your vase halfway with cool tap water, add flower food, and place your bouquet, releasing any twine or tape to allow the stems to absorb water freely. Gently separate blooms to encourage natural hydration and bloom.

​

Additional Care Tips:

• Change the water daily to maintain freshness and add a small drop of bleach to your vase.

• Keep your bouquet away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.

• As flowers bloom, rearrange or transfer them to maintain optimal spacing and prolong vase life.

• Remove any spent flowers promptly to prevent bacteria buildup and extend the beauty of your arrangement.
