You've received a beautiful fresh floral arrangement and it makes you smile every time you see it.  But how do you keep it looking beautiful and fresh?  
​
It's easy if you follow these simple steps!
​

​

LOCATION: The location where you display your floral arrangement is extremely important.  Don't place in areas with excessive light or heat (window sills, under lamps, next to a stove) or areas of extreme cold (air conditioners).  Fresh cut flowers prefer a moderate temperature.  Think coffee table in a room with diffused light.  

​

CLEAN WATER:  Clean, cold water is vital to keeping your floral arrangement alive.  When your water looks cloudy or low, that is a sign to change it ASAP, so I recommend changing it daily. 

​

A CLEAN VASE: When changing the water, give your vase a good rinse in warm water and if needed a wipe with a paper towel.  Before refilling, be sure to cool it down with a spritz of cold water. 

​

RE-CUT STEMS:  When you change your water, it is recommended you give the stems a sharp snip at an angle.  I suggest that everyone own a sharp pair of clippers.  They needn't be expensive, just sharp and not kitchen scissors.  To keep the shape of your arrangement at the same time, do the following: 

​

 - Cup arrangement in both hands at the base of the floral stems and carefully lift from vase. 

 - Holding gently in one hand, lightly twist twine or floral wire just underneath your hand. 

 - Snip the stems at an angle.

 - Replace in vase of cold, clean water.  

​

​

I hope these steps help you to continue the enjoyment of your floral arrangement.
