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
Baby's breath
Baby’s breath: clouds of tiny white flowers. It fills gaps and dries well.
Lasts 7 to 14 days
Lisianthus
Looks like a delicate rose but is far tougher. Buds further up the stem keep opening.
Lasts 10 to 14 days
