To ensure your blooms remain a vibrant and cherished reminder of your special moments, always utilize the supplied flower food and place your flowers away from direct sunlight, preferably in a cool environment. Trimming stems every three-ish days at an angle will also help greatly. To prevent bacterial contamination and to mantain water clarity, submerge any leaves below the waterline. When watering, always use cold water as it prevents flowers from dying. Finally, all wrapping paper used by Luxe Blooms is waterproof and can be safely placed in a vase.
