As a florist, there is a lot you have to consider when it comes to keeping your flowers beautiful and fresh, from the day they arrive till the day they are sold. And even after that moment, you want your customer to be able to enjoy your flowers as long as possible.
We put together a list of care tips that you might find useful, so you can focus on the creative side.
- Always buy fresh flowers to enjoy them as long as possible
- Ensure that you have enough cut flower food for the size of the bouquet and the most suitable vase (min. vase size is 1 litre) – this should be attached to the bouquet you buy.
- Always buy the freshest looking plants so as to enjoy them as long as possible
- Position the plant plant in a light place, some plants like direct sunlight, most don’t (see plant label if possible).
- Avoid draughts and keep away from direct heat sources.
- Ensure that there is enough water available for the plant. Use rainwater if possible.
- Soil must be kept moist, prevent excess of water at the bottom of the plant.
- Remove wilted flowers and leaves
- Enjoy your plants!
- Purchase plants of sufficient maturity and quality
- Pay attention to the activity of the plants e.g.
Each sachet of cut flower food contains exactly the right amount of nutrients to make your flowers bloom beautifully and keep the stems and leaves strong. It's super important that you mix the food correctly with the right amount of water, so always check the instructions on the package.
This well-known phenomenon is the premature wilting of the flowers that are sensitive to vascular blockages, such as Rosa, Bouvardia, Chrysanthemum and Gerbera.
