The DETAILS
Our gladioli are delivered in closed buds as they are fresh from the grower, which means you will be able to enjoy their beauty as they open over a few days.
Tepid water can accelerate the opening of the flowers should you wish for them to bloom faster.
Please note, if adding a vase to your delivery your items may arrive separately.
To enjoy your flowers for longer, follow these simple steps:
• Remove any foliage that would be below the waterline to avoid contaminating the water
• Re-cut the stems at a 45° angle to encourage maximum water absorption
• Place the stems in a clean vase with freshly drawn, lukewarm water as soon as possible
• Ensure the flowers are positioned out of direct sunlight, away from drafts or heating and avoid extreme temperatures
• Change the water regularly to keep the flowers happy and healthy
