Available in a bright variety of hues, these beautiful and cheerfully colored flowers are known to drink in lots of water, so be sure to check them daily. They are also sensitive to fluoride, so you may want to use distilled water. Your Gerbera daisies may arrive with a protective sleeve or "cap" on the bloom and a straw around each stem. These are used by growers to protect the flowers during transportation. Carefully remove the caps, but for added support leave the straws on the stems for the first 4-5 hours, during initial hydration. Gerbera daisies love fresh water, so re-cut their stems every few days.

ORCHID FLOWER CARE
Orchids are the most complex, advanced and successful family of flowers on the planet, with approximately 25,000 species occurring naturally throughout the world. Orchids are sensitive to sun, heat and drafts, so be sure and display your orchid arrangement away from direct sunlight, heat-generating appliances and fans. Since orchids drink in water not only from their stems but also directly through their blooms, you should also mist them with cool water, especially upon arrival.
Average Lifespan:7 days Seasonality:Year-round
Colors:White, Pink, Yellow, Orange, Burgundy and plenty of
bi-colored varieties.

TULIP FLOWER CARE
Tulips are one of the most popular flowers of all time and come in a variety of colors, heights and shapes. Be aware that tulips can grow almost an inch daily, even when cut. Tulips also naturally bend toward the light, so carefully consider placement to avoid a lopsided bouquet. When your tulips first arrive, it is best to keep them in the protective wrap while hydrating for the first 4-5 hours to help straighten and support the stems. Buy Flowers for Under $35 at FTD.
