• Remove the arrangement from the box - be extra careful as the vase contains water and the flowers are delicate.
• Guard petals (slightly blemished or discoloured outer petals) on the roses are intentionally left on as they protect the bloom during transit. They can be easily removed, if you wish, though we often prefer to leave them intact as they add character and make the rose open nicer!
• Add water immediately! To do so, in a separate container, mix a sprinkle of provided flower food with room temperature water and carefully pour into the vase. Hang onto the packet for future waterings and repeat this step daily to prolong the life of your blooms.
• Fresh flowers enjoy natural light and to be in a cool, dry environment, just keep them away from direct sunlight and heat sources (like an oven or radiator).
• Some flowers will bloom faster than others and at different times. Remove stems as they expire to keep the others blooming bright!

Since we are working with nature, the exact flowers may vary slightly, but the palette will be on point and your blooms will be beautiful and fresh - guaranteed!
