Why are my roses wilted, not bloomed or look bad on the outside?Updated 3 months ago

Addressing Concerns with Wilted or Unbloomed Roses šŸŒ¹

Receiving roses in bud form with guard petals is standard, but if your roses appear wilted, unbloomed, or have unsightly outer petals upon arrival, here's what you should consider:

Understanding Guard Petals:Ā The outer petals, known as guard petals, serve to protect the rose during shipping. They might look brown, deformed, or less appealing, which is entirely normal and expected.

The Importance of Grooming: Proper grooming upon receipt is crucial. This process involves trimming the stems, hydrating the roses in water, and removing unnecessary foliage and the guard petals.

Petals Removal:Ā Itā€™s standard floristry practice to remove 5 to 10 petals per rose to reveal the beauty underneath. This step is essential for preparing your roses for display.
