Buying Tips: Look for buds beginning to open with a deeper, richer color. Avoid stems with abundance of brown or shriveled flowers; stems that are black or slimy in lower portion; stems with no flowers fully open.

Processing: Unpack immediately. Remove foliage below solution level. Recut stems. Use one of Floralife’s hydration products (Hydraflor^® 100 or Floralife^® Quick Dip) to promote solution uptake and hydration. This treatment will help decrease flower wilting, bent neck and also helps keep flower stems free flowing.

Storage: Place flower stems in a clean bucket of solution and keep them treated during transport or storage until it is time to prepare them for consumer sales. Add additional solution as needed. Change out bucket solution at least once per week and use clean buckets prior to filling with new solution. Keep in cooler at 34 - 38˚ F / 75 - 85% humidity.
