We take adequate care to ensure that the flowers which you send to India are fresh when they arrive. Here are some tips to make them last even longer.

:: General Flower Care

A little extra care can make a big difference for any size flower arrangement or fresh flower bouquet.
In the Tropical Indian Climate, Most floral arrangements last 3-4 days or longer, depending on the flowers used and the care they receive. We provide these tips so that the flowers you send/receive are longer lasting and more vibrant flowers:

 :: For Floral Arrangements in a Vase or a Basket:

  • If the arrangement is in a vase, Keep the vase filled (or floral foam soaked in case of basket arrangement) with water containing a flower food available in the local market. Flower foods make flowers last longer but it is important to follow the mixing directions on the flower food packet.
  • If the flower food solution becomes cloudy, replace it entirely with properly mixed flower food solution. If possible, re-cut stems by removing one to two inches with a sharp knife. Be sure to use a sharp knife or clippers that will not crush the stems. Immediately place the stems into solution.
  • Keep flowers in a cool spot (18 to 23 degrees Celsius), away from the following
    • direct sunlight,
    • heating or cooling vents,
    • directly under ceiling fans
    • on top of televisions or radiators. (Appliances like televisions give off heat, which causes flowers to dehydrate.)
      Most flowers will last longer under cool conditions.

 :: For loose bunches or boxed flowers:

  • Keep your flowers in a cool place until you can get them in a flower food solution.
  • Fill a clean (washed with a detergent or antibacterial cleaning solution), deep vase with water and add a flower food from your florist.
  • Remove leaves that will be below the waterline. Leaves in water will promote bacterial microbial growth that may limit water uptake by the flower.
  • Re-cut stems by removing one to two inches with a sharp knife. Place the flowers in the vase solution you've prepared.
