Taking Care Of Box Flowers

Taking Care Of Box Flowers

One of the most unusual and touching gifts is a box of flowers. At FloralN5, we are crazy about this kind of composition and provide a rich diversity of those! And you like them as much as we do, which is no wonder: they look elegant and complete, as well as stay fresh longer than flowers in a vase.

So how do you prolong the life of flowers in a box even more? Here are some useful tips for you.

Taking care of box flowers

A bouquet in a box can last more than ten days when looked after well. Follow our recommendations to enjoy the beauty of your composition as long as possible:

  • take the flowers and the sponge out of the box to water it with a water can once a day, then leave it for an hour for the excess water to drain and put the composition back into the box

  • gently wipe the dust from the leaves and cut off the dried ones if such appear, then spray flower buds and leaves with water

  • keep the composition in a cool place where there is no direct sunlight

  • if your arrangement is made of roses, add ice to the water you use for the sponge to preserve their freshness

  • after the flowers fade, save the box and the sponge to use when you get a bouquet next time and enjoy that box composition look!

And that's it! As long as you stick to these simple recommendations, you'll be able to take care of your box bouquet carefully and keep the flowers fresh for more than a week.

In addition, if you have a box saved from the last arrangement and want to fill it in with the flowers from a hand bouquet you’ve just got, make sure to check the compositions we make for some inspiration!
