Ever notice how the first blossom on a fresh stem of Freesia
dies right away?
Flower care trick: NEVER cut Freesia!
Freesia have the strongest vascular system of just about any
flower. Plus when you cut the stem; a surge of ethylene rushes up the stem and
kills the open blossom.
So…when you get your Freesia (no matter how far it has
come…EVEN if the ends of the stem look calloused) resist the urge to give it a
fresh cut!
Simply place it into ICE COLD water treated with the Chrysal
Floral Nutrient Bulb food…and remove bands and sleeves. You’ll be Pleasantly
Surprised that EVERY bud will open in sequence…all the way to the end!
P.S. It only works with Freesia…kinda goes against
everything we’ve been taught…but try it once and you’ll be a believer.
