DIY Care & Handling Tips

Unbox immediately upon receiving.

Recut stems and hydrate upright for 4–6 hours; keep in a cool location.

Remove any foliage below the water line.

Stems are thin and can bend easily — handle gently.

Blooms may arrive closed; allow 1–2 days for full opening.

Avoid touching the delicate petals; they can bruise or wilt quickly.

Keep away from direct heat, sun, or wind; scabiosa is heat-sensitive.

See the DIY Guide for full care instructions.
