Gift Boxes

Storage Tips: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep contents in perfect condition.

Handling with Care: Handle this box gently so as not to damage the delicate items inside.

Freshening: If your gift includes foods or beverages, please refer to the individual product use-by and expiry dates and the informational materials regarding storage recommendations.

Fresh Flowers

Find a Vase: Your lovely blooms need a drink! Put them in your favourite vase with fresh water as soon as possible.

Trim Those Stems: Keep those stems fresh by cutting them at an angle. Checking and trimming the stems every few days will keep them sound.

Keep Them Cool: Place your flowers away from heat sources such as heaters, televisions, or ovens.

Clean Water: Refresh your vase with water daily or at least every second day.

Plants

Watering: Ensure your plants are hydrated but avoid overwatering. Check the soil moisture regularly and water it when the top inch feels dry.

Light: Place your plants in a spot where they receive the appropriate amount of light.

Artificial Flowers and Plants

Dusting: Lightly dust regularly with a soft cloth or feather duster.

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Do not place under direct sunlight to prevent colours from fading.

Please Note: Due to the seasonal nature of flowers and availability of specific items, the contents of our bouquets and gift boxes may vary throughout the year. We strive to substitute any unavailable items with products of equal or greater value, ensuring that every gift you receive is fresh, beautiful, and of the highest quality. Thank you for your understanding and for choosing us to celebrate your special moments.
