Spring bouquets
Tulips are unusual because they can continue growing by several centimetres after being cut. To keep your bouquet looking its best, fill the vase with only 5 to 10 cm of water. Combining tulips with stronger flowers can also provide more structure. Replace the water every two days and trim the stems when necessary to rebalance the arrangement.
A spring bouquet is a fresh and colourful bouquet made largely with flowers typical of the spring season. After the dark winter months, tulips, daffodils, ranunculus, hyacinths and other spring flowers bring colour and freshness into your home.
Absolutely. If you order your spring bouquet before 2:00 pm on weekdays or before 1:00 pm on Saturday, our local florists can prepare and deliver your spring flowers the same day.
In February, the range of spring flowers is still relatively limited. Tulips are widely available, while the first hyacinths also start to appear. Exact availability depends on the season and the selection at the local florist.
In March, the range of spring flowers becomes more varied. In addition to tulips and hyacinths, spring bouquets may include daffodils, anemones and freesias.
In April, the range of spring flowers becomes even more varied. Irises, lilies and ranunculus are among the flowers that bring colour and freshness to spring bouquets.
Yes, but it is best to let daffodils stand separately in water first so that the sap released from their stems can drain away. They can then be combined with other flowers. When replacing the water a few days later, avoid trimming the daffodil stems again, as this would cause them to release more juice.
As with other bouquets, replace the water in your spring bouquet approximately every three days. Use a clean vase, trim around 2 cm from the stems and fill the vase with fresh water. Keep your bouquet in a cool spot away from direct sunlight, draughts and fruit. Light and warmth speed up the development of many spring flowers, so limiting these will help your bouquet last longer. You can also turn the vase a quarter turn each day to encourage more balanced growth.
Yes. A spring bouquet generally contains several flowers typical of the season, such as tulips, ranunculus, hyacinths, daffodils and anemones. The exact composition depends on the fresh flowers available from the local florist.
A spring bouquet is suitable for almost any occasion. With its fresh and cheerful colours, it is ideal for a birthday, thank-you, new baby, housewarming or simply to brighten someone’s day. After the winter months, spring flowers also bring a welcome touch of colour and freshness into the home.
