General Flower Care

Clean Vase & Water
Start with a clean vase and fill it with fresh, cool water to keep your flowers healthy and prevent bacteria.

Nutrients
Add the provided flower food to the water to give your blooms the essential nutrients they need to thrive.

Placement
Keep your arrangement in a cool spot, away from direct sunlight, heaters, and ripening fruit.

The Best Spot for Your Flowers

Avoid the Sun

Direct sunlight will "cook" your flowers and cause them to wilt rapidly.

Keep it Cool

Avoid placing your vase near heaters, air conditioners, or on top of electronic appliances (like TVs).

Fruit Alert

Keep flowers away from ripening fruit. Fruits release ethylene gas, which makes flowers age faster!
