Hand-tied flowers in Aqua Pack

  • Hand Ties can be kept in the packaging for a maximum of 3 days.
  • Carefully top up the water daily – pour water slowly through the centre.
  • After 3 days remove cellophane and follow these instructions.
  • Keep the tie around stems if you want to keep the shape we have created for you, remove it if you want to arrange the flowers yourself.
  • Clean your vase thoroughly using hot water and washing up liquid, or rinse with water to which you have added a tablespoon of bleach. This will neutralize any bacteria on the inside of the vase and it will help your flowers last for longer.
  • Holding the bouquet up to the vase to get the right length then using sharp, clean scissors, cut 3cm off each stem at a 45-degree angle.
  • Be careful to remove any leaves which lie below the water level; these will decompose and contaminate the water and could damage your flowers.
  • Place the bouquet in a cool position, away from heating or cooling vents, appliances, direct sunlight or draughts.
  • Keep away from ripening fruit.
  • Add fresh water daily.
