Description
Garden Roses have larger heads that open more rapidly and fully than standard roses. In addition, they have a stronger, fresher fragrance like the ones grown in your own yard. This is an excellent choice for bride’s bouquets and fresh arrangements. They are a great replacement for peonies, as they look similar and are available year round.
Rose Care
Your ROSES will arrive packed in bunches. Trim about 1 off the bottom of the stem and remove all foliage that will be below the water level.
Place them in fresh water.
Leave the plastic wrap around the roses in place for about 6 hours while the roses re-hydrate.
When arranging the roses, trim the stems again and carefully remove any loose or imperfect petals.
The outside petals are known as the guard petals and that is exactly what they do, guard the inner petals.
As the rose opens, you may need to remove more petals that may have imperfections.
Store your roses in a cool place. Remember that the cooler the temperature, the slower the flowers will open and the longer they will last.
Do not expose fresh flowers to freezing temperatures.
Re-cut the stems and change the water every 2 to 3 days, or as needed.
