To get the best from your wholesale cut Anigozanthos, please read the care instructions below carefully:

  • Ideal temperature range 2 to 5 degrees 
  • They are thirsty flowers
  • Cut the stems at a 45-degree angle with a sharp knife.
  • Fill sterilised buckets with fresh, clean water and add flower food.
  • Place the anigozanthos in the buckets.
