How to Care for Your Local Flowers
Thank you for bringing home a piece of Blooming Bliss! Your bouquet was grown with love, harvested at peak freshness, and thoughtfully arranged to bring beauty into your home.
Because locally grown flowers are different from grocery store blooms, a little extra care will help them last longer and continue to open beautifully.
The First Step: Give Them Fresh Water
When you bring your flowers home:
Remove any leaves or foliage that will sit below the water line.
Trim about ½–1 inch from the stems at an angle using clean, sharp scissors or floral shears.
Place your flowers in a clean vase filled with fresh, cool water.
Keep your vase away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and ripening fruit.
Refresh Their Water Regularly
Local flowers love fresh water!
Change the water every 1–2 days.
Rinse your vase before adding fresh water.
Re-trim stems every few days to help your flowers drink.
Enjoy the Beauty as They Bloom
One of the joys of locally grown flowers is watching them change. Many varieties are harvested when they are just beginning to open, allowing you to enjoy days of new blooms, colors, and textures.
Some flowers may naturally bend, dance, or have unique shapes, that’s part of their charm and what makes each bouquet one of a kind.
A Few Tips for Longer Lasting Blooms
✓ Remove fading flowers as needed to keep your arrangement looking fresh.
✓ Place your bouquet somewhere you’ll see it often flowers are meant to be enjoyed!
