When you arrive, There will be different container size options for you. It will be what you place your flowers in and take them home in. They will have water (with flower food) and a few pieces of greenery to get you started. Farmer Tip: A good rule of thumb for a balanced arrangement is 15%-25% greenery to flowers. This helps the flowers pop.

We have scissors and snips here for you to use but feel free to bring your own. Make sure you are getting long study stems and flowers. This helps make sure those coming after you have lots of choices too. It is best to cut where the flower branches.

Make sure you strip all of the leaves off the stem before you put them in the cup. Farmer Tip: The leaves cause bacteria to grow in the water which makes the flowers go bad faster and you have more room for flowers if you strip the leaves before they go in the cup!

Take your time and walk around to see which flowers you want. New flowers are blooming each week. When you are done please return our scissors or snips before you leave. Farmer Tip: Don’t over-stuff the cup. This can cause the stems and flowers to be crushed in transport and lead to decreased vase life.

Be sure to get a Bonus Blossoms loyalty card with extra flower food to take home too!

When you get home. Remember, fresh flowers drink LOTS of water so be sure you are checking the water level daily.

If you are going to put them in your own vase, be sure it is clean. (As in - you would drink from it - clean.)

Change the water every other day and give each of the stems a fresh cut. (a 1/4” to 1/2” cut is all you need.)

Display out of drafts and direct sunlight.
