Mother’s Day Flower's - care guide

Make your bouquet last longer

There’s something really special about receiving flowers on Mother’s Day — and with a little care, they can be enjoyed well beyond the weekend 💐

Whether you’ve chosen a native bouquet or a seasonal mix, here’s how to get the most out of your flowers


💐 First Things First

When you get your bouquet home:

  • Trim the stems slightly on an angle

  • Place them straight into clean, fresh water

  • Add the flower food provided

  • Keep them in a cool spot, away from direct sunlight and heat

This helps your flowers drink properly and stay fresh for longer.


🌼 Ongoing Care

To keep your bouquet looking its best:

  • Refresh the water every 2–3 days

  • Re-trim the stems slightly when you change the water

  • Remove any leaves sitting below the water line

  • Keep away from heaters, direct sun, and drafts

Small steps make a big difference in how long they last.


🌸 When Seasonal Flowers Start to Wilt

Seasonal flowers are beautiful, but they won’t last forever — and that’s okay 🤍

As softer blooms begin to wilt:

  • Gently remove them from the bouquet

  • Refresh your water and let the remaining flowers shine


🌿 Let Your Natives Dry Beautifully

The best part about native flowers is they don’t have to be thrown away.

Once your fresh flowers have finished:

  • Remove the remaining native stems

  • Place them in a dry vase or pot (no water)

  • Keep them in a cool, dry room

Over time, they will naturally dry and create a long-lasting arrangement you can keep for weeks or even months.


🎀 Little Ways to Reduce Waste

We’ve designed everything to be reused or repurposed:

  • Use the bouquet wrap to wrap a gift or keepsake

  • Tie the ribbon around your vase for a soft, finished look

  • Reuse the wrap for gift wrapping, scrapbooking, or drawer lining

  • Use leftover ties and ribbon for gift wrapping or to tie flowers later

  • Keep dried natives as home decor or table styling

  • Add dried stems to a memory box or sentimental keepsake

  • Put your wilted flowers in the green bin
