Just 5 easy steps + temperature control is all it takes tolower shrink, ensure optimal vase life, and guarantee your customers the best possibleflower experience! Happy customers are repeat customers, so be sure you’re onthe journey to FRESH every day!

STEP 1

Did you know dirty containers, tools, and workspaces can shorten vase life by up to 20%? Clean and sanitize regularly! FloraLife® D.C.D.® Cleaner is designed for florists, making the job quick and easy without the need to rinse. Clean = healthier stems, longer vase life, and less waste.

STEP 2

Did you know it only takes 2-3 seconds to jumpstart hydration? Flowers travel long distances, often arriving dehydrated. Without immediate hydration, stems can clog, have “bent neck”, or droop. A quick boost from FloraLife® Quick Dip Instant Hydration Solution will unclog stems, increase solution uptake, and reduce waste.

STEP 3

Did you know FloraLife Crystal Clear® Flower Food has been shown to extend vase life by an average of 60% compared to plain water? Flower food gives fresh-cut flowers the nutrients they need but no longer get since being harvested. Water alone isn’t enough. Without nutrients, flowers fade quickly, leading to dissatisfied customers and premature waste.

STEP 4

Did you know finishing products like FloraLife® Finishing Touch and FloraLife® LeafShine Spray maximize the natural freshness, reduce water loss, and enhance the appearance of fresh-cut flowers and foliage? Flowers should leave the shop in peak condition, without a finishing step, stems may dry, wilt, or lose luster before reaching the customer.

STEP 5

Did you know research shows at least 50% of consumers don’t re-cut stems at home? Sending a packet of FloraLife® Express Flower Food with every purchase is the Florist’s best insurance policy! Cut or no cut, your flowers still perform well, maintain vase life, and give your consumer a first-rate experience.

STEP + 1

Temperature control is key to floral care. Processing, use water chilled in cooler. Most fresh-cut flowers & foliage store at 34°-38° F, (1°- 3° C), tropical flowers & foliage 55°-65° F, (13°-18° C).
