Care Guide

1. Please, no water

Unlike their fresh friends, dried blooms do not like water. None. It makes their stems weak and mouldy. Keep them warm and dry at all times.

2. Avoid direct sunlight!

Dried flowers will naturally fade over time, particularly if they are kept in direct sunlight. This is part of their charm, to be enjoyed as much as any other time. But to slow the fade, keep them away from direct sunlight.

3. Be gentle

They are fragile, and become more fragile as time goes on. You may see some fall out from grasses, some petals or some little blooms but don’t despair.

4. A quiet place

They’re best suited to a spot with little movement — a side table rather than a dining table that gets moved around a lot.

5. Keep out of reach of little people and fluffy things

They’re best kept away from children and pets to keep them looking their best for the longest time — they’re not edible!

6. Good airflow

Ensure good airflow and avoid temperature swings. In a stagnant or damp room they may become moist, and moisture leads to mould. Check the stems inside the vessel now and then to see they’re nice and dry.
