About the flowers
Rose
The classic cut flower. Recut stems at an angle and keep them in fresh water out of direct sun.
Lasts 7 to 10 days
Carnation
Ruffled, lightly clove-scented and one of the longest-lasting cut flowers there is.
Lasts 2 to 3 weeks
Gerbera
Big, flat daisy faces in bright colours. Gerberas like shallow water, as their stems can soften.
Lasts 7 to 10 days
Hypericum berries
Glossy berries on green stems. Not edible, but long lasting and full of texture.
Lasts 2 weeks or more
