New Beginnings

To help your bouquet thrive, start by trimming each stem at a diagonal angle and removing any leaves that would sit below the waterline. Place the flowers in a clean vase filled with fresh, cool water, and mix in the flower food provided. Keep the arrangement in a spot with soft, indirect light—away from direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources like radiators. Change the water every two days, giving the stems a fresh trim each time. For best results, separate any flowers with varying care needs, such as woody stems, which may prefer warmer water, or delicate blooms, which thrive in cooler conditions. Treat your bouquet with love, and it will reward you with beauty for as long as nature allows.
