Flower Care

Make your blooms last longer and feel fresh all week

Trim The Stems

On arrival, cut 2–3cm off each stem at a sharp angle using clean scissors or a knife. This helps your flowers drink more water and stay fresher, longer.

​

Tip: Trim every 2–3 days for extra longevity.

Use Clean Water

Fill a clean vase with room-temperature water. Bacteria is the enemy of fresh flowers, so make sure your vase is squeaky clean.

​

Bonus: Add the flower food sachet — or a dash of sugar + a drop of bleach as a homemade option.

Remove Leaves below waterline

Strip off any leaves that sit below the water — this prevents rotting and murky water, which shortens your flowers' lifespan.

​

Tip: You can chuck the stems in your green bin and recycle them!

Extra Tips

Choose the Right Spot

Keep your flowers out of direct sun, heat, and draughts. Avoid placing them near fruit bowls (fruits release a gas which can make flowers die quicker).

​

Refresh Often

Change the water every 2–3 days, give the vase a quick rinse, and re-trim the stems. Your flowers will love you for it.

​

  • Sunflowers: Love lots of water — keep the vase full!

  • Gerberas: Hate soggy stems — keep water levels low.

  • Chrysanthemums: Last ages! Just trim and freshen water.

  • Roses: Remove guard petals (those tough outer ones) for a fluffier look.
