When you receive your amazing delivery (from our online store or one of our subscriptions), we’ll have prepared and arranged every stem beautifully so your only job is to sit back and enjoy.

Here are a few pro tips and tricks so you can make sure your blooms last for as long as possible until your next delivery…

  1. When choosing the perfect spot to show off your blooms you’ll want somewhere with lots of natural light but avoid anywhere too hot. Also avoid putting them too close to any fruit because this will age your blooms much quicker than they would naturally.

  2. Trim an inch off the bottom of your stems (at an angle) every 2/3 days so they keep drinking water and stay looking fresh.

  3. Remove any leaves from your stems that are sitting in the water of your vase to prevent bacteria spread.

  4. Refresh the water every 2/3 days and use the flower food included making sure it’s well mixed.
