• Remove lower leaves, give the stems a fresh cut, and place in cool water for 1 hour BEFORE unwrapping cardboard. This will prevent the roses from slumping over by allowing them to rehydrate while upright.
• After an hour, remove wrapping and spread out. Allow for plenty of elbow room!
• Roses can come in tight, so place them in a sunny location to encourage opening.
• Remove guard petals, which may have spots or bruising

Roses are considered an 'Volume Flower'. Based on our design ratios, here's our recommended quantity suggestion:

• Bridal Bouquet: 8-15 stems
• Maids:  5-7 stems
• Bouts:  1 stem
• Corsages: 1-2 stem
• Centerpieces: 5-7 stems
• Large Arrangements: 10-20 stems

Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions. All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine. For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop), incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point. 

Acceptable Subs:  Different rose variety in same color palette.
