Frequently asked questions
How does temperature affect flowers?
Heat causes flowers to respire at a higher rate and so fade; the cooler the room
or location they're in, the longer they will last. However, cold or draughty
conditions may cause petals to dry out too. A moderate, sheltered position is
best.
Why cut stems at a 45° angle?
By re-cutting the stems at an angle, you are removing dry fibre and ensuring a
wide surface to take up fresh water. Putting stems into water while cutting
them helps them to absorb even more water, and so stay fresh for longer.
What is the point of flower food?
It contains three additives which nourish flowers and deter bacteria:
-
sugars to feed the blooms and encourage buds
-
biocides to kill the fungi, yeasts and bacteria
-
acidifiers to encourage water to rise up flowers' stems
