Care Tips

Lucky you--your new BloomsyBox has arrived and it's time to unbox the goods! Hooray! Now what? You want the blooms to last as long as possible--how can you do that, though?

How to take care of your flowers?

1. Trim your stems.
Make sure to trim the stems at a 45-degree angle before placing them in your vase with your flower food. This helps them hydrate properly!
2. Replace the vase water.
Keep your vase free of harmful bacteria that will shorten the lifespan of your flowers by removing wilted petals, removing leaves below the waterline, and replacing the water in your vase often.
3. Keep it cool.
Your cut flowers will always be happiest in cooler spaces. Whatever you do, avoid sunny windows!

Tropical bouquets care instructions

1. Keep it warm.
Your tropical bouquet prefers warm temperatures between 55-75°F. No coolers!
2. Stay hydrated!
Grown and harvested in hot, humid climates, tropical flowers need plenty of water. Keep your vase 2/3 full at all times. And as usual, be sure to trim the stems at an angle before placing your bouquet in water.
3. Spray it, don’t say it.
Your tropical greens and flowers need extra hydration to live long and happy vase lives. Be sure to spray your bouquet with water daily.
