Get understanding of different type of blooms and care instructions.
Preserved Flowers
What are preserved flowers?
Preserved flowers are 100% real and natural flowers that have undergone a special chemical process to maintain their beauty and freshness with no need for water or sunlight.
How are they being preserved?
Fresh flowers are cut when they are at the peak of their beauty and radiance, and undergo complicated processes like dehydration by using non-toxic & non-corrosive chemicals, following rehydration process by placing them in a mixture made from glycerines and other plant elements. These eco-certified chemicals gradually rises through the trunk until it completely substitutes the sap and gives it shape. Few days later, the process is complete and flowers are ready to be used.
Where do your preserved flowers come from?
We sourced worldwide for richer varieties of preserved flowers, mainly imported from China, Ecuador, Japan, Italy and Spain. In addition, we only source for premium flowers (Grade A & above) that are higher quality and last longer with higher cost.
How do I care for the flowers and how long will they last?
Typically preserved flowers can last few months to a year depending on surrounding humidity level and environment as well.
Follow our care instructions below for prolonged shelf life.
-
Do not put them in water
-
Keep them out of humid places (i.e. bathroom, kitchen)
-
Keep them away from direct sunlight or strong light
-
Store and display in a cool place preferably at temperatures below 35°c
-
Do not press, bend or squash the petals or stems
The colour of preserved flowers may fade naturally, depending on the environment.
Dried Flowers
What are dried flowers?
Dried flowers are 100% real flowers that have undergone a dry process.
How are they being dried?
Fresh flowers are cut when they are at the peak of their beauty and radiance, and leave them to try by dehydrating naturally, placing them face down. Once completely dry, they can undergo a colouration and setting treatment so that they regain some of their original appearance.
How do I care for the flowers and how long will they last?
Typically last up to 3 months depending on surrounding humidity level and environment. They are more fragile than fresh flowers and preserved flowers, their branches and stems break easily, the colour gradually fades and the petals fall off or break.
To keeping them longer, follow our care instructions below.
-
Do not put them in water
-
Keep them out of humid places (i.e. bathroom, kitchen)
-
Keep them away from direct sunlight or strong light
-
Store and display in a cool place preferably at temperatures below 35°c
-
Do not press, bend or squash the petals or stems
The colour of dried flowers may fade naturally, depending on the environment.
Artificial Soap Flowers
What are artificial soap flowers?
Soap flowers are not real flowers, they are crafted from high-quality soaps with nice fragrance. Each flower undergoes a special and intricate process to preserve the quality and integrity of the petals which are then dyed with rich and outstanding colours.
How do I care for the flowers and how long will they last?
Typically soap flowers can last 3 to 6 months depending on surrounding humidity level and environment.
To keeping them longer, follow our care instructions below.
-
Do not put them in water
-
Keep them out of humid places (i.e. bathroom, kitchen)
-
Keep them away from direct sunlight or strong light

Fresh Cut Flowers
What are fresh cut flowers?
Fresh cut flowers are real and natural cut flowers, imported worldwide.
All fresh flower bouquets are wrapped with water covering the stems to keep them hydrated.
It is normal to observe slight marks on the outer petals; These outer petals, also known as the guard petals, help to protect the blooms during shipping. The green streaks or veining are some of the common features of a guard petal. They should fold back and the marking becomes hidden once the blooms open fully.
How do I care for the flowers and how long will they last?
Generally may last 1 to 3 days based on our local weather & humidity level.
To ensure fresh cut flowers last for a longer period of time, remove the wrappers and place bouquet in a vase of fresh water. Snip off an inch of the stems and change water daily.
Sola Flowers (Wood Flowers)
What are sola flowers?
Sola flowers are natural products that handmade with 100% biodegradable, sustainable material (renewable wood from a sola plant).
Every single sola flower is composed of petals that are made from stems of sola plants which are peeled and folded into various shapes in the hands of master craftsmen, and then created to gorgeous flowers. It is an artisanal process that cannot be mechanized.
Naturally, sola flowers are a creamy ivory color.
Due to the unique texture and absorption, they can be treated as diffuser.
Drip 3 to 4 drops of essential oils, the wood petals of sola flowers will rapidly absorb the essential oils and diffuse fragrance into the air through evaporation.
How do I care for the flowers and how long will they last?
In general, they can last for years or even a lifetime. For prolonged shelf life, keep the flowers in a cool area and away from direct sun exposure.
