Flower Care: Preserved Flowers

Keep your flowers beautiful for years to come with these tips and tricks from our flower experts for Preserved Flowers.

Keep your preserved flowers away from humid areas. Water and moisture make the the stems weak and mouldy. Keep them in a cool, dry area - much better if it's shaded. Avoid direct air-conditioning too!

If your preserved flowers come with their own case, then leave them inside as is. If you don't have a glass case, you can find one in your local craft store or online. Storing them in a container like a bell jar or glass display case can reduce the effect of humidity while keeping them safe from dust and moisture.

Like dried flowers, preserved flowers will naturally fade over time, particularly if the are exposed to heat and sunlight. Please avoid placing them under direct sunlight to prevent discolouration.

Fun Fact:

Preservation is used so flowers can retain their beauty and charm without much maintenance. When done right, preserved flowers can stay "fresh-looking" for years. But did you know that not all flowers can withstand the preservation process? Hence why only the strongest rose species are used.

Dust the preserved flowers occasionally by using a soft, dry tissue or a hair dryer on the lowest speed with NO heat. Make sure to keep a suitable distance from the flowers so that the air flow is not too strong.

Preserved flowers are fragile, and become more fragile as time goes on. Do not press, bend or squeeze the petals or stems! Rough handling of the blooms can cause the petals or stems to droop or worse - fall off entirely.
