Charming Flower Arrangement

A Charming Flower Arrangement in a Glass Jar, Ready to Display

Some gifts ask something of the person receiving them. This one does not. The Charming Flower Arrangement arrives built into its own glass jar, so there is no hunting for something to put it in and no fuss at the door, just warm red and orange blooms ready to set down and enjoy. It is the gift you send when the words are hard and you want the flowers to do the talking. Hand-arranged in our Claremont studio, it has the warmth of something made by people who care, and our florists build every one by hand, backed by a 5.0 Trustpilot rating and thousands of five-star Loox reviews since 1999. To see the wider range first, browse our flower arrangements.

What Is Inside the Charming Arrangement

The warmth comes from a few bold flowers working together. Red roses bring depth and a quiet sense of love, while red gerbera daisies add instant cheer and an open, friendly face. Orange alstroemeria threads in friendship and a lift of colour, and maroon snapdragons give the arrangement height and a richer, darker note. Fresh eucalyptus and seasonal greenery soften the edges and keep it textural. Because we build to the season, the exact blooms shift through the year while the warm red-and-orange character stays the same. If you love this palette, you will feel at home in our red roses, our red flowers, our orange flowers and our gerbera daisies. The Golden Sunrise Arrangement, the Cherry Brandy Arrangement and the Citrus Couture Arrangement carry the same warmth in their own way, and our guide to what a rose really means is worth a read.

Why a Flower Arrangement in a Vase Makes an Easy Gift

The difference between this and a hand-tied bouquet is the vase. A bouquet arrives wrapped and needs trimming and a vase at the other end. The Charming arrives already arranged in its own clear glass jar, so the person opening the door has nothing to do but find a spot for it. That makes it a kind choice for an office desk, a hospital room or anyone who is short on time. It sits alongside our wider luxury flower arrangements, our florist's choice arrangements our new flower arrangements and our flowers in a jar, all built ready to display.

How Long Flowers Last in a Vase

With a little care, a fresh arrangement like this holds well for around five to seven days, and often longer. The trick is simple: change the water every couple of days, trim the stems, and keep it out of direct sun and away from the fruit bowl, as ripening fruit speeds up wilting. Our guide on how to care for flowers in a vase walks through the details, and if you enjoy the craft behind it, the art of flower arranging is a lovely rabbit hole.

An Arrangement for Birthdays, Thank Yous and Sympathy

The Charming is a quiet all-rounder. The warm tones make it a natural for a birthday or a heartfelt thank you, and the same warmth carries real comfort for sympathy or a set of get well soon wishes. It is just as at home as a just because gesture, the kind that lands on a normal Tuesday and changes the whole day.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I keep the Charming arrangement fresh?

Top up the water daily, trim the stems every two days, and keep it somewhere cool and out of direct sun. Keeping it away from ripening fruit helps too, since the gases fruit gives off shorten vase life.

Fabulous Flowers and Gifts Fresh Flowers Care Instructions

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. This allows more water up the stem. Checking and trimming the stems every few days will keep them sound.

Gently Strip Leaves: Remove any excess leaves, especially from the part of the stem that will be submerged. This helps to avoid rot and bacteria, which can shorten your flowers life span.

Remove Old Blooms: Drooping flowers release ethylene gas, which may accelerate the aging of other flowers. Strip off any dead or dying flowers to keep the rest of the bouquet looking bright and fresh.

Keep Them Cool: Place your flowers away from heat sources such as heaters, televisions, or ovens to retain the beauty of your flowers.

Clean Water: Always place your flowers in clean water. Refresh your vase with water daily or at least every second day.

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:

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. Some prefer bright, indirect light, while others thrive in low-light conditions.

Feeding: Feed your plants with a balanced fertiliser every few weeks during the growing season to keep them healthy and vibrant.

Pruning: Regularly remove dead leaves and trim back overgrown branches to encourage new growth and maintain the plant shape.

Humidity: Some plants thrive in high humidity. If needed, mist your plants occasionally or place a humidifier nearby to create a favourable environment.

Artificial Flowers and Plants

Dusting: Your artificial flowers and botanicals should be lightly dusted regularly with a soft cloth or feather duster.

Light Washing: For deeper cleaning, please use a cloth lightly dampened with water and a small amount of mild detergent. Gently wipe the leaves and petals.

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

Fluff and Arrange: Just fluff up petals and leaves to remain fluffy. Set them in position as desired to look natural.
