Care instructions: When it comes to changing the water (we recommend every 2-3 days), re-cut stems at an angle and remove any leaves that may sit underneath the waterline when placed in a vase as leaves in water create bacteria and shorten the life of your blooms. The removal of leaves from the stem also encourages water to go towards the flower head and keep your flowers fresh for a longer period. Add flower food every time you change the water. If you don’t have flower food, a teaspoon of white sugar does the same job. For best results, display Roses in a cool shady spot. Avoid proximity to ripening fruit or positioning in direct sunlight.
