Dozen Red Roses in a Vase

Dear Valued Customer,
This beautiful rose arrangement was ordered especially for you. We know from experience how
much you will enjoy this beautiful gift of nature. Please take care and follow our tips on how to enjoy your floral gift better.

  1. Keep the flowers away from drafts (ex., Ceiling fans, open windows, vents).
    from heat and sunlight.
  2. Keeping the flowers in the coolest part of the room (an air-conditioned room) is
    best.
  3. On the second day, dump all the water from the vase (making sure to keep all flowers
    together), rinse the stems and the vase.
  4. Open the packet of floral food and put half of the packet into the vase, and fill it with
    lukewarm water.
  5. Last step, remove each rose and recut ½ inch off the stem diagonally under water or
    under running water and insert the stem back in the vase immediately (this is important
    By doing this, you are cutting the bacteria off the stem, allowing water to travel up the
    stem of the rose, thereby giving extended life to the roses) This should be repeated in 2-3
    days.
  6. If you receive your bouquet at a different location, other than home, DO NOT LEAVE
    THEM IN THE CAR!! THE HEAT WILL KILL YOUR FLOWERS!
    Special Note
    If the rose droops, it does not mean its old. It usually indicates that air is trapped in the stem, and
    the water plus the food cannot flow to the head of the flower. Please recut the stem immediately
    under fresh water or running water.
    As stated earlier, it is very important to us that we provide you with the understanding you need
    to care for and enjoy the gift sent to you with love.
    Please call if we can help you in any way.
    Thank You For Your Business!!!!
