How do I care for my Greenery?
The location and environment of the greenery will affect how long it will last. Outdoors, try to place it in an area that gets plenty of shade and out of direct sunlight. Indoors, try to keep greenery away from any heat source and out of direct sunlight. The cooler the location of the greens, the longer they will last. You can mist the greenery with water daily to help the cuttings last. Fresh greenery used in bouquets should be treated like a cut flower. It should receive a fresh cut of 1 - 2 inches, and placed in fresh water. If you receive a greenery with a hard wooden stem, then we recommend pounding a part of the stem with a hammer to help water absorption. Greenery with woody stems do not take up water readily.
Remove any foliage that may become submerged after re-cutting to help avoid bacterial growth.
