💧 1. Keep the Floral Foam Wet (Most Important)

Floral foam acts like a sponge.

• Check moisture daily

• Slowly pour water directly onto the foam (not just the flowers)

• Add water until the foam feels fully saturated

• Never let the foam dry out — once dry, it’s hard to rehydrate properly

💡 Tip: Use a watering can with a narrow spout for controlled pouring.

🌡️ 2. Placement Matters

• Keep away from direct sunlight

• Avoid heaters, radiators, fireplaces

• Keep away from air conditioners and fans

• Ideal room temperature: cool (18–22°C / 65–72°F)

Heat shortens flower life quickly.

✂️ 3. Trim & Maintain

• Remove wilted flowers immediately

• If stems are accessible, trim ends at an angle every few days

• Gently remove fallen leaves or petals to prevent mold

🧪 4. Add Flower Food (If Possible)

• Mix flower food with water before adding to foam

• If no packet available, a tiny drop of bleach in water can help reduce bacteria (very diluted)

⏳ 5. Expected Lifespan

Most foam arrangements last:

• 5–10 days, depending on flowers used

• Roses and carnations last longer

• Hydrangeas and tulips may fade sooner

⚠️ Important

Unlike potted plants:

• These flowers will not regrow

• Once wilted, they must be replaced

If the receiver is not home and we are unable to contact them, we will leave the flowers outside if the weather conditions are suitable. If the weather is not suitable, the flowers will be returned to the store.

In that case, you can arrange another delivery attempt for $10 by contacting us via phone or email, or the sender/receiver can pick up the flowers from our store.
