Caring for

- Cut the stems at a 45 degree angle with a sharp knife.

- Place the ixia in the buckets - up to their necks in water.
- Leave over night to condition before using.
Never leave cut flowers in direct sun light, near a radiator, in a draft or near fruit. (The gas used to ripen fruit will harm most flowers). Keep the ixia in a cool place and always keep out of the way of children.
