Freesia care

Here at Flower Station in London we pride ourselves on being a completely independent shop who buy and import all our products from the growers directly using procedures as outlined by the Fair Flowers Fair Plants association. As such the freshness of your freesias is virtually guaranteed, however a few tips will make these flowers last even longer. As freesias are very susceptible to dehydration, make sure they are given plenty of clean water and be aware of the falling water line. Before placing them in water, cut the stems and do add the flower food sachet as an extra supplement of vitality. Try to keep them from ripening fruit and exhaust flames, as these are sources of ethylene that will accelerate the ageing process by not allowing enough flower buds to open. The ageing top buds should be eventually removed to encourage the new buds to open and flower.
