If orchids are going to be arranged after 3 days of being received, cut about one inch of the stem at an angle under water (with a sharp knife NOT scissors). Remove foliage that could fall under water to avoid bacteria to build�in and place the flowers in clean, fresh, warm, filtered water (100F�105F). Rehydrate for at least an hour before using and add floral preservative.
