How to Care for your Flowers |
 |
||
Get Them Ready
|
 |
||
In a water-filled basin or bowl submerge flower stems, and cut them diagonally with scissors. This simple step will help your flowers absorb cut flower food, while eliminating stem-clogging bacteria. |
 |
||
Feed Your Flowers Always start with a clean vase and add a packet of cut flower food to warm water. A packet of flower food is enclosed with all flowers and arrangements from A Floral Boutique. The use of flower food has been shown to increase the life of fresh flowers by several days. |
 |
||
Show Them Off Display your flowers in a cool, draft-free location, away from harsh sunlight and heat vents. Never set flowers on top of a TV. Top off water daily and replace totally after several days. Flowers like to be spray misted too! When you're down to your last few blooms, change to a smaller vase. |

Tips for Getting Started Beautiful bouquets and flower arrangements can be shown off in many different types of vases and containers. The possibilities are endless - from an antique teapot or brass urn, to an elegant crystal vase, or a simple glass jar. Avoid containers made of steel or iron. |
