Funky Pigeon Flower Bouquets: How To Setup and Care For Your Roses or Flower Bouquet

We sometimes deliver our flowers in bud to ensure you can watch them bloom and enjoy them for as long as possible. To get the most out of your bouquet, follow the care guide below and allow a few days to bloom.

Flowers naturally wilt at times. To prevent this and protect your flowers, we recommend avoiding direct heat and drafts and removing any sad looking flowers to keep your bunch looking fresh.

If you’re not completely happy with your order or something isn’t right with your bouquet, please contact our customer happiness team and we’ll be happy to help.

Step 4: Change the water and add flower food every 2-3 days to keep them looking fresh.

Our flower arrangements are pre-arranged in floral foam, ready for you to put out on show – no vase needed!

Step 1: If your flowers come with a plastic cane to protect the arrangement, remove and dispose of this safely.
Step 2: Top up the arrangement with 1 litre of fresh cold water, and stir in Day One flower food.
Step 3: Some flower containers are not waterproof, such as hat boxes. Carefully pour the flower food solution onto the foam without overflowing any into the container.
Step 4: Make sure that the outside of the container is dry before displaying your arrangement. Use a suitable mat to protect furniture.
Step 5: Check the water level in the arrangement every few days and top up with cool fresh water as required with the second sachet of flower food.
