- Fill containers with at least 6 inches of fresh, cool water.
- Cut stems diagonally approximately at least and inch from bottom under running water with sharp scissors or knife. This will create a fresh surface to absorb water.
- Immediately after cutting, place the stems in the prepared water.
- Allow flowers at least 4 hours to hydrate well.
- Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, drafts or excessive heat.
- Change water every 24 hours to keep flowers fresh. Assure that your flowers have sufficient water. The flowers will drink an exceptionally large amount of water upon arrival.
- Remember that exposing flowers to warm environments (outside, a hot room, etc) will help the flowers to bloom, and storing your flowers in a cooler environment will slow down the opening process. If you do not add floral preservative, please change the water every 24 hours. This will keep the water from becoming contaminated with bacteria that will block the flower's availability to absorb water. Leaves will wilt before flowers. It is recommended to remove all foliage before placing into an arrangement, or to remove the foliage as it droops and discolors.
While blooms that show color may fully open, the smaller bloomsuds may not open. This is normal. However, they will accent the larger blossoms and the foliage.
Usually your snapdragons are being shipped laying down and it is normal for them to arrive curled over. Snapdragons are phototropic, meaning that the stems will naturally follow the light. To straighten out the flower stem, place a lamp directly above but no closer than 6 feet from your flowers as they hydrate.
