Flower Care Tips for a Floral Centerpiece

Hi! This is Diana for expertvillage.com. We have just made our floral arrangements for our centerpiece. I’m going to tell you something about the care and handling of the centerpiece that you’ve just made. You want to make sure that you fill it with fresh water everyday; the flowers drink a lot of water. You can also add to it some floral preservative. This one is called Floral Life, it’s a powder. You just add it to the water and then fill up your container. You can check everyday just by putting your finger in the container and if you don’t feel any water, you have to make sure that you fill it up with water. If you’re going to be taking this to someone else’s house, transporting it the car, then I recommend that you do not fill it with water until you get over to the location that you’re going, then you can fill it with water. Keep it out of the sun and make sure you fill it back up with water everyday.
