Top tips to get the most out of your flowers...
Always make sure your vase is clean.
Fill the vase two thirds full with clean cold water.
*Top tip* don't overfill the vase as this will cause the stems to rot prematurely.
Remove any foliage that will sit below the water line - this will avoid build up debris.
Trim (preferbly at a shapr angle) 2 to 3 cm from the bottom of the stems.
Change the water as often as possible to prolong the vase life of your flowers.
The right vase...
Choose a vase that's half the height of the flowers, this will give your vase of flowers a good proportion.
The best conditions...
Flowers prefer to be in cooler conditions, unlike us that like it cosy!
Keep them away from draughts and heat sources such as radiators or fires.
Avoid placing them in direct sunlight.
A top tip that you may find interesting... keep your flowers away from the fruit bowl, especially apples, fruit releases ethylene gas, which causes flowers to deteriorate.
Last but not least enjoy!
