How To Care For Your Arrangements of Roses:

Roses are very traditional flowers used to celebrate anniversaries and romantic holidays, birthdays and special occasions, and more. Roses can also be used in contemporary arrangements for a variety of occasions. Regardless of the occasion, when you've received an arrangement of roses it quickly becomes a special moment and fantastic memory. Help keep your memories (and roses) alive with the help of these great flower care tips.

• Place stems or bouquets of fresh flowers in water as soon as possible.


• Add preservative to the water. Preservative packets can be found at local flower shops.


• Keep fresh flowers away from draft and extreme temperatures which can quickly dry the flowers and cause wilting.


• Avoid placing flower arrangements in windowsills and other areas of full sun where flowers can wilt due to overheating.


• All flower stems should be submerged in water. Decline of fresh flowers occurs much more quickly after stems have been removed from water.


• To maintain fresh flowers longer, trim the stems and change to fresh water after a few days.


• Immediately remove dead or wilting stems from fresh flower arrangements.
