For longevity of cut flower bouquets, here are five steps that we recommend you follow:

1. Cut stems using a sharp knife. Do not use scissors. Cut stems under water that is fresh, clean and warm.
2. Immediately place your cut flowers in a vase or container filled with water. It is recommended that you remove all foliage that lies below the water line.
3. Many cut flowers are delivered with a small bag of floral preservative. We highly recommend that you read the instructions and add accordingly in order to prolong the life of your flowers.
4. Add water to the container as needed. This is generally every couple days. If you're not using preservatives, it is best to scrub the container and re-cut flower stems on a daily basis.
5. Flowers are best kept away from heat sources, drafts and the direct air from air conditioner units/vent

Light: Foliage plants prefer to be located near a window where they receive light, however, most plants do not like intense sun.
Temperature: Most foliage plants prefer temperatures in the 55 - 70 degree range (Fahrenheit).
Watering: Inspect soil every few days and add water when the soil feels dry to the touch. When watering, wet the soil all the way through.
Fertilizing: Approximately 4 weeks after receipt, plant food may be required to prolong the life of foliage plants. Most garden centres can recommend a suitable plant food. Be sure to identify the type/size of plant and the size of your container.
