Caring for your fresh-cut seasonal arrangement.

Remove spent blooms and stems as you see them.

This protects the remaining flowers and keeps the arrangement looking fresh

Keep indoors, away from intense sun or heat.

Ice helps water absorption - be sure to add it on hot days.

Change water every few days

Trim stems at a angle every 2-3 days and remove any dead leaves, and ensure stems are bare below the waterline

OPTIONAL:

 Add preservative if desired. You can make your own using 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon household bleach, 2 teaspoons lemon or lime juice to 1 quart water

For even greater longevity, keep flowers in the refrigerator at night
