Immediately
upon arrival, check water level...
And add warm water (100ºF) if needed. Use floral preservative; keep water
level high in the vase daily. Arranging foam should always be kept saturated.
If a rose
wilts...
Submerge entire flower and stem in tub or tray of warm water
(100ºF) and straighten. Cut 2" from end of stem under water. Allow
rose about 2 hours under water to revive. Another option: float the bloom in a
bowl.
Display
roses in cool location...
Out of direct sun. Avoid excessively hot or cold areas.
Key Tips
For Success:
Change the water every day and add a capfull of bleach to the water
for clarity and longevity.
Re-cut stem ends under water with a knife at an angle so the
rose stem is not sitting flat on the bottom of the vase. This allows the
rose to take up more water.
Keep vase full of water; use a floral preservative. Display in cool
area. |
