First Things First: When your bouquet arrives, give it a spa day in water mixed with the flower food you receive. The perfect cocktail for bloom nourishment is half a litre of water for one sachet of flower food.
Foam-Filled Containers: Keep it quenched with daily water top-ups to maintain that resplendent look. 💦
Cloudy Water? Time to Change: If the water looks more London fog than clear spring day, it’s time for a refresh 🌫️ ➡️ 💧
The Cozy Secret to Long-Lasting Phools
Avoid Extremes: Just like us, flowers don't fancy drafts or sweltering heat. Keep them in a happy place, away from harsh temperatures, to ensure they stay perky. 🍃
Shy Away from the Sun: While a bit of sunlight is great, too much is a no-no. Keep your blooms in cool or room-temperature spots for a longer vase life ☀️ ➡️ 🚫
Keeping Your Flowers Fabulous
Out with the Old: Regularly remove wilted flowers and leaves to keep your arrangement looking its best. 🥀 ➡️ 🗑️
Water and Food Mix: No flower food? No problem! A splash of soda water or a mix of apple cider vinegar and sugar works wonders.
The Art of Cutting: Use a sharp knife (avoid blunt scissors) and cut stems at an angle. This keeps them drinking and thriving.
Submerge Wisely: Make sure all stems are underwater, but keep leaves high and dry. 🌿 💧
A Chat a Day: Believe it or not, talking to your flowers can keep them (and you) happy. Tell them about your day; they’re great listeners! 💬 🌸
