How to care for fresh cut flowers
The best flower delivery services come with advice on how to care for your flowers. This should include how best to prepare the bouquet and what to do once the flowers are in water. A sachet of plant food, typically made from mild disinfectant and sugar, is also often included but this can also be bought online.
Cutting the flowers with garden scissors before putting them into a vase will prolong their life and help with the display. Leaves from the bottom half of the stems should be removed to prevent any rotting in the water.
Once placed in a vase, the water level should be checked every other day and topped up as needed. Try to place the flowers in a cooler spot away from fires or direct sunlight.
