Flower & Plant Care

Follow our simple care tips to help your flowers and plants stay fresh and look their best for as long as possible.

Flower Care Instructions

We offer a 7-day vase life guarantee on most of our bouquets. With a little extra care, you can enjoy your flowers for even longer.

All of our flowers are conditioned before delivery to ensure maximum freshness and longevity.

To get the most from your flowers, follow these simple steps:

  • Ensure your vase is clean and filled with fresh water and flower food
  • Follow the instructions on the flower food provided
  • If the water becomes cloudy, replace it completely with fresh treated water
  • Re-cut stems by approximately 2–3cm using sharp scissors every few days
  • Return stems to water as quickly as possible after cutting
  • Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, heat sources and draughts

Lilies - Special Care

If your bouquet contains lilies, please be aware that pollen can stain fabrics. If pollen comes into contact with clothing or surfaces, use sticky tape to lift it away — do not rub.

Please note that lily pollen can be harmful to cats if ingested.

Plant Care Instructions

All of our plants are carefully selected and inspected to ensure they arrive in excellent condition. When you receive your plant, check the soil moisture and water if needed.

While care requirements vary depending on the plant, these general tips will help keep most indoor plants healthy:

  • Place your plant in a bright position with indirect natural light
  • Avoid direct sunlight unless specifically required
  • Water regularly to keep compost moist, but not waterlogged
  • Ensure proper drainage and do not allow plants to sit in water
  • Mist leaves occasionally in dry environments to maintain humidity
  • Keep plants away from extreme heat, cold or draughts
