Description

About this bouquet

Twenty-four garden roses with ten stems of pink spray rose and eucalyptus. The spray roses fill the gaps between the larger heads so there are no holes in the shape, and the eucalyptus adds scent that the roses themselves mostly do not have. At this size it is unmistakably a gift rather than a gesture.

Who this one suits

As a romantic gift it says what it needs to without a card having to explain it.

For a birthday it reads as celebratory rather than romantic, which makes it safe for a friend, a parent or a colleague as much as a partner.

24 stems suits a standard cylinder vase. Trim a little off the stems every couple of days as you change the water and it will hold its shape longer.

Caring for garden roses

Garden roses carry many more petals than a standard rose and open into a full cup over two to three days. That is when they look their best. Re-cut the stems at an angle before they go in water, strip any leaves that would sit below the waterline, and change the water every other day. Expect five to seven good days — a little shorter than standard roses, in exchange for a fuller flower.

Caring for spray roses

Each spray rose stem carries several small heads that open in sequence, so the bouquet keeps changing for a week or more. Pinch off any bloom that finishes before the others — it keeps the rest looking fresh and stops the water clouding. Re-cut the stems on arrival and change the water every other day.
