Each bouquet is prepared with careful attention to water needs and protective wrapping to keep petals and foliage in excellent condition.

Question 7

What flower care should I do when the bouquet arrives at my door?

Accepted Answer

First, remove any packaging that keeps stems compressed and trim the ends slightly at an angle. Then place your flowers in clean water and keep them away from direct sunlight, heaters, and cold draughts. If your arrangement includes foliage or leaves that sit below the waterline, remove them to help prevent bacteria build-up. For hand-tied bouquets, changing the water every day (or every other day) makes a big difference. If you'd like, we can include basic care tips tailored to the flower types you chose, such as how to keep delicate blooms looking their best.

Many of our Eco rating: 86% eco-friendly packaging items are designed to be easier to recycle at home. If you're unsure, keep any labels from the parcel and we'll tell you which parts are typically recyclable.
