Flower Care | 3 Easy Steps
Here are THREE simple steps to help ENSURE your blooms live their best life & stay rad for as long as possible!
Keep cool!
(The cooler they stay the longer they live
Keep out of direct sun & away from heating elements.
(Stoves, vents, & sunny windows)
Recut stems & change the water daily.
(Or every 2-3 days, as long as the water stays clear.)
Stay Clean. Stay Fresh. Stay Rad.
Flower Tips & Tricks
Save the scented geranium stems from your bouquet & plant them in a pot of soil or directly in your yard, for a gift that keeps on giving!!
Determine the length you wish to cut your tulips for the container / vase they will be in and then cut them 1-2 inches shorter than your desired height. Tulips are a phototropic bloom & will continue the "elongate" or grow towards the light after being cut.
Fresh Flowers like, lavender, sage pods, gomphrena, strawflower, craspedia, eryngium, magnolia & grevillea are among some of the best floral elements that hold up long beyond the vase. They dry incredibly well, hold their color, shape & in some cases even their scent (lavender, sage) far longer than most blooms. Especially locally grown. They are perfect for repurposing once fully dried for things like home decor, potpourri, or a fun organic element to a wrapped gift!
With that often comes critters & pest (like aphids) while beneficial in some aspects of farming, not always what we want on our kitchen counters. Enter they LadyBugs to the rescue!
If you decide that the ladybugs aren’t really your jam, gently scoop them up and set them free in your yard to continue their work elsewhere.
When in doubt: consult a professional! We always ready to help answer your questions!
