Care Instructions for “Choose Your Amount - Pink Spray Roses” Bouquet

The “Choose Your Amount - Pink Spray Roses” bouquet is a stunning arrangement of delicate, clustered pink spray roses. These small, charming blooms add a touch of elegance and romance to any setting. To keep your bouquet fresh and vibrant for as long as possible, follow these care instructions.

1. Use a Clean Vase

Before placing your spray roses in a vase, ensure it is thoroughly cleaned with warm water and a mild antibacterial agent. A sanitized vase helps prevent bacterial buildup, keeping your roses fresher for longer.

2. Fill the Vase with Fresh Water

Use room temperature water and fill the vase about halfway. Spray roses require good hydration but should not be submerged too deeply to avoid stem damage.

3. Trim the Stems at an Angle

Using sharp scissors or a knife, cut each stem at a 45-degree angle to allow for better water absorption. Re-trim the stems every 2-3 days to keep them hydrated and fresh.

4. Remove Excess Leaves

Remove any leaves that fall below the waterline to prevent bacteria growth, which can shorten the lifespan of the flowers.

5. Change the Water Regularly

Replace the water every two days to keep it clean and free from bacteria. If the water appears cloudy before then, change it immediately.

6. Position the Bouquet in a Cool Location

Keep the bouquet in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, heating vents, and cold drafts. Exposure to excessive heat or direct sun will cause the roses to wilt faster.

7. Avoid Ethylene Gas Exposure

Do not place the bouquet near ripening fruits such as apples or bananas, as they release ethylene gas, which speeds up the aging process of flowers.

8. Support Delicate Blooms

Spray roses have thin stems and multiple blooms per stem, making them more delicate than standard roses. Handle them gently when adjusting the arrangement or refreshing the bouquet.

9. Refresh the Stems Regularly

Every 2-3 days, re-trim the stems slightly to improve water absorption and prolong freshness.

10. Use Flower Food for Extended Freshness

If provided, add flower food to the water. If unavailable, dissolve a small amount of sugar and lemon juice in the water to help nourish the flowers and keep them vibrant.

11. Remove Wilting Flowers Promptly

If any flowers begin to wilt, remove them immediately to prevent them from affecting the rest of the bouquet.

By following these care steps, your “Choose Your Amount - Pink Spray Roses” bouquet will remain fresh, vibrant, and full of charm, brightening your space for days to come.
