Caring for your Flowers

  • Keeping your flowers fresh

    • Narcissi should last for up to a week, perhaps more
      if you take good care of the flowers
    • They like to be kept cool, away from a direct heat source. If kept constantly cool, the flowers can last
      up to three weeks
    • Keep away from ripening fruit, which releases ethylene gas and prematurely ages blooms
    • Remove dead heads from the flowers
    • They are quite thirsty - keep water topped up regularly.

  • Displaying

    • Unlike other flowers, Narcissi stems do not need to be re-cut before displaying. However, sometimes the tip of the stem can dry out - in which case - trim the end of the stem by approximately 2cm
    • Never bash the stems, it damages the vascular cells so they can't take up water
    • Always use fresh water and follow the instructions on the cut flower food
    • Flower food doesn't make much difference to narcissi, but does cut bacteria in the water
    • Keep vases clean and avoid metallic vases
    • The use of oasis is not recommended
    • With their lovely strong scent, Scilly Isles Scented Narcissi are a natural and attractive air freshener for the home!
