Cut Flower Care

shop-kado
  • Use a clean vase with room temp water. Filtered/dechlorinated is best.
  • Add powdered flower food to water and stir to dissolve. Remove the binding wire before placing flowers in water.
  • Your flower stems were cut and wrapped immediately prior to delivery. Recut them only if the stems were allowed to dry out.
  • Remove any leaves below water line.
  • To prevent water damage on wooden surfaces, place your vase on a waterproof mat.

  • Recut stems one half inch every two days with sharp garden shears. Try to avoid crushing stems.
  • Cut flowers are thirsty! Check water level daily top it up.
  • Change water completely if it becomes cloudy. (That's bacteria!)
shop-kado
  • Remove wilted/decayed flowers over time to keep the remaining flowers fresh.
  • Keep flowers away from fresh fruit, vegetables or cigarette smoke. They all produce ethylene gas, which kills flowers.
  • Keep in a cool place. Avoid direct sunlight, heat registers, or any other source of excessive heat.
  • Never use flower food in crystal or metal containers as the acid in the flower food will react with metal (including the lead in crystal).
