Fresh Flower Care Tips
- Remove and recycle bouquet wrappers (if any) and place flowers into a vase with clean water
- Keep fresh flowers away from direct sunlight or heat or in rooms with high humidity
- Remove any foliage that falls below water line over time
- Change water every 2-3 days or when the water turns cloudy
- Cut about 1-2cm of the stems diagonally every time you change water or when you see the end of the stems turning soggy
- Add flower food to water to make the flowers last longer
- Enjoy your fresh flowers before they start to wither!
- If you do decide to air dry your flowers for keepsake, separate the flowers as much as possible to prevent mould from forming and hang the flowers upside down. Allow them to air dry for at least a week. Keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent further discolourisation. Do note that not many flowers air dry well in Singapore's humid climate. Discard the flowers if you see mould forming.

As part of adopting a circular packaging system, clean jars are collected from our community and repurposed for our jar arrangements.
If your bouquet is not wrapped with our typical brown sustainably-sourced kraft paper or ribbons, we thank your sender for enabling us to reduce waste created from new materials. Most of these bouquet wrappers and ribbons have been collected from our community, of which they are completely new or look as good as new - ready to be used or repurposed for others. Please reuse or recycle them as much as possible.

Dried & Pressed Flower Care Tips
- It is normal for your florals to discolourise over time as they are natural with no preservatives added to them. If you would like their natural colours to last longer, keep it away from direct sunlight or heat
- Keep your flowers in a well-ventilated place and avoid storing them in places with high humidity. Ensure your flowers do not get wet in any way.
- For Floating Florals, avoid shaking the frame excessively to ensure florals stay in place
- For Floating Florals, only remove the back of the frame and florals when you are certain that you would like to use the frame for something else (e.g. as a photo frame instead)
Conscious about your packaging
Floating Florals are wrapped in our sustainably-sourced kraft paper. Please reuse or recycle the papers as much as possible.

Terrarium and Succulents Care Tips
- Succulents and terrariums are great as indoor plants but they do need about 6 hours of bright indirect sunlight to thrive well. Place them near the windows as they do well with the morning sun or indirect light from the afternoon sun.
- For succulents, water directly at the soil. Water only once 2-4 days as succulents like to have their roots soaked with water but then dry out quickly. Water again after the soil has been dry for a few days.
- For terrariums, the type of plants we use are Fittonia plants ("nerve plants"). It is to use a spray bottle to mist the leaves almost daily. You can also moderately water them directly on the soil, and then wait till the soil has been dry for a few days before watering again.
Conscious about your materials
Our terrariums are made using repurposed glass jars collected from our community. Our succulent holder/saucer is repurposed from takeaway sauce containers. All materials have been cleaned and washed before repurposing them.
