How to care for a bouquet of natural flowers?

1. A little bit of air for the flowers

The doorbell rings. A smile comes across your face. Yes, it’s your Colvin bouquet. Our commitment to quality means making sure your bouquet arrives perfect. That’s why, as soon as you open the box, you’ll see that your bouquet is well secured so that no movement can affect it, and it comes wrapped in our kraft paper and a soaker to keep each of the stems well hydrated along the way. Once here, all you have to do is give your flowers a little air. Keep in mind that they have gone all the way in their little box and need to breathe.

2. Cut the stems diagonally

Once you have removed the kraft paper and the soaker, it’s time to cut the stems. It’s important not to overdo it with the scissors! 😉 You will only have to cut them about 2 fingers and diagonally. This will give them a little boost of vitality and make it much easier for them to drink water and hydrate.

3. Fresh water

Did you know that the vase and water is super important to make your natural flower bouquet last longer? Before placing the flowers in your favorite vase, remember to clean it well. This step will be vital so that the stems do not absorb substances that they should not. When you have it shiny, fill it with water without letting it touch the flowers, just covering the stems is more than enough.

EXTRA TIP: Change the water every 2 days to extend the enjoyment of your bouquet even more.

4. It’s time for nutrients

Your bouquet of natural flowers will come well protected and comfortable in its box, but it will not arrive alone. It will be accompanied by 2 sachets of nutrients ready to make your life a little easier. These little packets make the flowers happy and strong in an easy way: you only have to open the sachet and put it in the water.

Did you know that you can also make nutrients at home?

If you have followed all these steps and made sure that your bouquet of flowers is in the best possible environmental conditions, you may need extra nutrients to extend its life a little longer. If you don’t have any more bags left, we’re going to give you some great news: you can make them at home. And you’ll only need 3 ingredients that you’re sure to have lying around: water, sugar and lemon.
