Try These Tips to make your Valentines day Flowers last longer

The love that you receive on Valentine's Day can indeed last a lifetime. Don't you wish those romantic roses you receive did too? So when you receive your Valentine’s Day flowers, here are a few tips to keep them looking fresh and beautiful for as long as possible:

1. Before you start, make sure that your vase is clean. Then remove any leaves from the lower part of the stems that will be submerged in the water.

2. Trim about 1cm from the end of each stem, at a 45o angle and do this under water. This stops air getting into the stem and makes it easier for the flowers to draw fresh water into their stems.

3. Re-trim the ends of the stems every day or so, to keep the ends fresh.

4. Give your flowers the right nutrients to keep them fresh and healthy for longer. Some florists include little packets of flower food with each bouquet. Make sure to use it. Add one packet of flower food every time you refresh the water – either daily or every second day.

5. Lastly, add a few drops of bleach to the water to help keep the water clean. Remember, only a couple of drops or you will damage the flowers.

More Pro tips to Keep Valentine's Day Flowers Blooming

Fresh Flowers need just the right temperature to remain vibrant and blooming. Avoid placing your Valentine's day roses directly under the air conditioner, in direct sunlight, or near a heat source. Natural indoor lighting works just fine for your flowers as long as you're following the tips we've listed above.

Most important of all, make sure to wash the vase clean with soapy and dry it thoroughly each time you want to replace the water. This will help get rid of the bacterial growth and help your flowers stay fresh longer.

That’s the secret to keeping your Valentine’s Day flowers in tip top shape for as long as possible. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Read this blog post to learn more about how to match your sentiments with the right flower types of colours.

Want a morning or afternoon delivery? Want to make sure your Valentine gets their favorite flower? Then don’t wait to order! Popular varieties, availability, and delivery times may sell out if you wait until Valentine’s Day to place your order. Valentine 2016 is very close to the Vietnamese New Year.

And now that we have an online florist shop, you have no reason to delay

2. Size and color of Valentines day flowers

A bouquet of red roses is all about the romance and remains a classic contender for the most popular Valentine’s Day flowers. But here’s our secret: Red is not the only gesture of true love. If you want to change it up a bit this year, consider what colored roses say to your Valentine…

Red rose remains a classic contender for the most popular Valentine’s Day flowers

Sending flowers to mom? Deep pink roses are a sign of appreciation and gratitude. A good friend will appreciate yellow roses, which symbolize friendship, caring, and affection. If you’re sending to a secret admirer or budding relationship consider a bouquet of white roses, which signify young love, purity, and innocence (many people associate white roses with sympathy but they can also offer a deeply thoughtful gesture of love). Brand new romance? Orange roses say enthusiasm, attraction, and excitement while lavender roses are an indicator of love at first site. Try out a light pink bouquet, which says elegance, happiness, and gentleness for a sophisticated Valentine.
How big? One dozen roses say “be mine;” two dozen says “I’m yours;” and three dozen or more says “I’m head over heels”. Choose wisely.

3. A surprise flower delivery makes a BIG Impression on Valentines day!

February 14^th is on a Sunday this year, so if your Valentine has weekends off from work consider sending your flowers a day early so everyone at her job will know just how much you care. We recommend selecting a vase or basket for work flowers to make sure they stay fresh all day.

Alternatively, have your bouquet sent to the restaurant of your choice for your V-Day dinner. The restaurant can set them on the table before you arrive for a heartfelt surprise. A shorter, more compact arrangement works better for this scenario but will be sure to make a big impression.

4. Know your Valentine.

Not everyone likes roses, so make sure your bouquet reflects your Valentine’s unique personality. A vase of orchids, orchid plants, tulips, or hydrangeas are gorgeous alternatives to roses. Green plants are also a beautiful and less conventional option and generally last longer than fresh cut flowers (unless you aren’t great with caring for plants :). Other crowd pleasers include gerbera daisies, hyacinths or an assortment of distinctive flowers of their favorite color. If you’re still not sure, leave it up to our team of designers; after all, this is our specialty!

5. Flowers + Chocolates= Success

Send a little extra love with your delivery this year. Add on chocolates, chocolate covered strawberries, balloons or even a plush animal to your flower order to make this Valentine’s Day one to remember.
