Tulips

To get the best from your wholesale tulips please read the care instructions below carefully:

 

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. On arrival leave the wrapping on (this will help stop them bending towards the light)
  2. Cut the stems at a 45 degree angle using a sharp knife
  3. Fill a clean bucket with lukewarm water and flower food
  4. Submerge the stems into the deep water
  5. Leave overnight to condition
  6. NB. Leaving the wrappers on will prevent the tulips from opening too quickly. To encourage this you can loosen the wrappers
  7. TOP TIP - make sure your tulips remain straight by inserting a floristry wire up inside the stem to just below the flower head. Using wires in this way is also great when manipulating the stems into curves and bends
