FAQs

Bouquets of flowers

What do you mean by “florist’s choice” bouquets?

Open tab

The seasonal bouquet – florist's choice gives us the chance to make flower bouquets with seasonal flowers and foliage that are only available at certain times of the year.

The flowers and colors of this bouquet will be chosen according to availability in store. It is impossible to specify the varieties of flowers and colors that will be used because it will depend on the season and the inspiration of the moment.

Let yourself be tempted by the florist's seasonal bouquet of choice for its spring flowers, its more summery flowers or those in the fall. We make an effort to always source local and seasonal flowers to meet this demand. As flower lovers, we are really keen to use seasonal flowers which are so beautiful.

Bouquet worked with vaporous foliage such as eucalyptus and other seasonal foliage.

All our bouquets are created with all the passion for their profession from our team of floral designers.

I want to come pick up a bouquet, but I have other errands to do, what should I do?

Open tab

The bouquet can last a good hour without water.

If your flower bouquet has been a little tested by commissions a little longer than expected, we suggest that you cut your stems at an angle and put them in water a little more lukewarm than cold. Thus, the flower vessels will open and allow the stem to drink well and rehydrate.

Can I select my own flowers to make a bouquet?

Open tab

Yes, absolutely, you can tell us your preferences, but we always have new arrivals and seasonal flowers in our fridges and we have the eye to be able to create a bouquet that will meet your needs according to the lines directives that will be given to us with our creative touch.

Flower care

How can I keep my flowers fresh longer?

Open tab

We suggest cutting the stems at a 1 cm bevel every 2 days. And change the water regularly. Temperate water.

Also make sure there are no leaves in the water.

Avoid placing the flowers near a heat source, the flowers will open more quickly and this could also increase the proliferation of bacteria in the water.

All these little tips will allow you to extend the life of your flowers by a few days.

We are not fond of small sachets of additives to put in the water. Some suggest adding water, a little 7-up and a few drops of bleach. Others use crushed aspirin in water, but the water should be changed regularly regardless.

What is the average duration of natural flowers?

Open tab

That's a very good question. Flowers have very different lifespans. We like to say that our books evolve over time.

Some flowers can last 3 to 5 days, like peonies or lilacs. Most have a lifespan of about a week and we also have flowers that can last 2-3 weeks. Yes yes!

We can gradually remove the flowers at the end of their life from the bouquet and continue to see our floral composition evolve over the following days. This is the beauty of nature!

How do I dry my natural flowers?

Open tab

Not all varieties of flowers dry well. Some lose their petals and the color is regularly changed. For flowers that dry well, such as roses, gypsophila or eucalyptus, it is recommended to dry them upside down in a dry place. It will only take a few days and your head will be straight.
