It’s important to know how to properly care for a flower box so you can enjoy your blooms for as long as possible. Here’s a simple guide to keeping your flower box fresh, vibrant, and looking beautiful!

1. Watering: The Key to Longevity

While your flower box is designed to look stunning, it’s also living, breathing nature! To keep the flowers fresh, it’s essential to water them properly.

• How to Water: Gently water the foam between the flowers every 1-2 days, or when the soil feels dry to the touch. Be sure not to over-water, as this can lead to wilting or mold.
• Tip: Water only around the center of the oasis, it’s important to keep the box dry!

2. Keep It Cool

Flowers thrive in cool, well-ventilated spaces. Place your flower box in a spot that gets indirect sunlight—bright, but not too hot. Direct sunlight can cause the flowers to wilt faster and dry out the leaves. Avoid placing your flower box near heat sources, like radiators or vents.

3. Trim Wilting Stems

Remove any wilted or dead flowers and leaves promptly. This will help prevent the spread of mold or bacteria, and it will encourage the remaining flowers to bloom longer. For a more polished look, you can also trim the stems of the flowers at an angle to keep them fresh.

4. Refresh with Flower Food

For extra care, consider adding flower food to the water. Flower food helps nourish the blooms and keeps them hydrated. Follow the instructions for mixing, and make sure you add the solution to the foam.

By following these simple steps, you’ll ensure that your flower box stays as beautiful and vibrant as the day you received it. Fresh flowers bring joy, color, and life to any room, and with just a little care, they can last much longer! ??
