Love Your Flower Arrangements

There is lots of information on the web on how to treat your flower arrangements after you receive them so they last longer at home. However, there is very little information on why these treatments are required.

Flowers are just like humans, they require water, food, shelter and love. Water must be clean and therefore many suggest that you add lemon juice, vinegar or other acids to the water to keep it clean.

The only food for flowers you need is sugar. Having said this, sugar must be dissolved in the water first so the flowers can survive.

Most cut flowers will not survive long under a direct sunlight, heat or wind. A proper environment will prolong vase life.

Caring for your flower arrangements is very important. Our experience shows that flowers do live longer in nurturing environments. Working with flowers for so many years has convinced us that flowers that are given and received with sincerity and cared for with love last much longer.
