  1. Re-cut at Least 1" off the bottom of the rose stem, Preferably under water at an angle.  When you re-cut your roses under water it prevents the possibility of air being trapped in the stem.  We cut out flower stem on an angle to provide more water to the head.

  2. Choose a Clean glass or plastic vase that will be large enough to hold all of your roses plus lots of water.  Premature wilting of your roses can be caused by a dirty vase.  We suggest purchasing a new vase or bleaching your vase with chlorine bleach and scrubbing your vase clean.  Use on a metal container or vase is not recommended as the metal may react with commercial available Flower food.  Bleaching a metal container or vase is not recommended.

  3. Into a clean vase add HOT water, Stemming hot is best and add flower food, if provided.  Never add aspirin to your rose water, it will just clog the stems, preventing water to reach the heads.  Hot water will Help to open the rose head.   If no flower food is available, you may use a teaspoon of sugar added to the hot water.

  4. Remove any leaves that my be below the water level in the vase.  Do Not remove all of the thorns from the rose stem.   Thorns removed above the water level in the vase may cause an air block in the rose head, thus premature wilting.  Rose leave below the water level promote bacterial growth, and clogged stems.

  5. Regularly top off your vase with clean water, Roses are heavy drinkers and need plenty of water. 

Please note: 

At night roses prefer to be kept cool and will benefit from a lower thermostat setting.

Roses do not like direct sunlight or drafts.  Never place your roses on top of a television, Stereo, or other equipment that gives off heat.
