Flower Care & Handling

Tips to make your Alejandría flowers last beautifully

Flowers are more than a gift they are a moment of love, joy, and beauty captured in nature. At Alejandría, every bloom is chosen with care to bring elegance into your life. To help you cherish them longer, we’ve prepared these simple and gentle tips, so your flowers stay as radiant as the emotions they were meant to express.

 

 

 

Arrangements in Signature Boxes

  • Each arrangement includes floral foam (Oasis) enriched with water and flower food to keep blooms hydrated.

  • Add half a cup of water daily into the center of the arrangement to refresh the foam. A small water bottle is perfect to avoid overwatering.

  • Always keep your arrangement indoors, away from direct sunlight, air conditioning vents, ceiling fans, radiators, or any strong airflow.

  • Ideal temperature: 65°–72°F (18°–22°C).

  • Do not place anything on top of the arrangement or tilt the box, as this may damage the design.

 

 

 

 

Arrangements in Vases or Hand-Tied Bouquets

  • Refill the vase with fresh, clean water every day.

  • Replace the water every 2 days and trim stems ½ inch at a 45° angle with sharp scissors or a knife to allow better water absorption.

  • Remove any leaves that fall below the waterline to prevent bacteria growth.

  • Place your bouquet in a cool area, never directly under sunlight, AC units, or near heating appliances.

  • Flowers are delicate by nature: handle gently when re-arranging or refreshing.

 

 

 

 

Preserved & Long-Lasting Roses

  • Do not water preserved roses — moisture can damage them.

  • Keep away from direct sunlight and humidity (avoid placing in bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoor areas).

  • Store in a cool, dry space (ideal humidity 60–80%).

  • Handle gently — do not press, bend, or remove the blooms from their box.
