Since your roses will be shipped direct from the farms, you will be receiving them at the same stage as a flower wholesaler. So they will probably look different than you are used to purchasing. After they have been properly hydrated and put into a state of suspended animation, they ship in dry packs usually. With proper care, they can last up to two weeks or more. A few hours after hydration, they will perk up and look dramatically different.
Follow these simple steps for maximum performance and satisfaction: 1. Carefully unpack rose from box by cutting any straps. Remove packaging from the stems, but leave any plastic or paper covering the blooms for the first few hours while the flowers re-hydrate. Also leave the rubber bands holding the stems together for the first 4 hours or, if you wish, until you are ready to start arranging flowers. If you want to leave the packaging on the blooms, be sure to loosen it so they can breathe and not trap condensation.
Fill clean containers with at least 4 inches of fresh, cool water. If you can get some floral preservative at a flower shop, that will prolong floral life. As an alternative, you can use some Sprite and a few drops of unscented bleach drops per gallon to inhibit bacterial growth.
Remove all leaves that will be under the water level. Remember that foliage should never be in contact with water. Leaves left in water will tend to rot and create bacteria that shorten vase life. Cut stems diagonally about an inch from the base of the stem with sharp scissors or knife.
Immediately after cutting, place the stems in the prepared water. The flowers will drink an exceptionally large amount of water upon arrival. Allow flowers at least 4 hours to hydrate well. Some flowers take up to 12 hours to hydrate fully. Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, heat and air vents, television sets or excessive heat.
Generally, the cooler the temperature, the slower the flowers will open and the longer their life. Avoid refrigerators or walk-in coolers not specifically designed for flowers. Re-cut the stems about one inch and change the water every two or three days to keep flowers fresh. Clean the vase. Add water as flowers absorb it, or change it thoroughly. To maximize the life and beauty of your roses, remove the first layer of protective guard petals.
They are normal, and are not a sign of damaged or old flowers. These guard petals protect the blooms while they grow and were left on to protect your roses during shipping. Roses are in bunches of 25 stems, in a two-tier system. If you see only 12 roses at the top of the bunch, don not panic! Order a little bit more than you need. There will inevitably be a few that are damaged in transport, but with the unbelievably low prices, they are totally affordable.
Try to check out the roses in person at a florist before ordering. I wanted a very pale pink rose for my bouquet, on a whim, I ordered the 'light orlando' based on the pictures from the Global Rose website and it was slightly darker than expected.
Great customer service. If you have any questions, I would strongly advice calling their customer service line. They helped me figure out how much fillers to order so I didnt waste my money ordering more than I need.
Make sure the roses do not arrive more than 2 days before you need them for semi open buds, and 3 days before you need them for nearly full blooms. I was a little nervous ordering them online, but they were perfect. Maybe 2 broken stems when they got to us we ordered We ordered them on a Wednesday got them on Tuesday and handed them out to the kids on Friday. The flowers were beautiful the whole time.
The extras were still looking good after a weekend in my classroom. Will be ordering again. Thanks Global Rose! By Amanda Key Verified Buyer ' First time to use global rose and i loved the flowers, the only issue i had was FedEx delivery on both days. Next time Ill have it delivered to my work instead of residence. I ordered 50 light pink roses and 20 white hydrangeas and i followed the instructions they had and was very pleased.
These were for a friends baby shower. By Nicy Rodriguez Verified Buyer ' I painted wine and beer bottles, and used them as vases for my orange and hot pink roses and carnations. We could not have been happier with the roses!! They were beautiful. Thank you so much!!! This is my storya local florist had dropped the ball 4 weeks before the wedding and I had no clue what to do. So, I got on line and looked for flowers.
I came across your website and found the perfect pink rose for my daughters wedding. I am leary about ordering such items on line considering the time frame, shipping, etc. I also sent emails discussing the purchase and to confirm the shipment and received emails with answers and confirmation within 18 hours. The roses arrived as promised on Wednesday, November 12 before lunch and they were as fresh as if I had picked them myself.
The roses were flawless--directions were sent and I followed them to the T I cannot thank you enough for your professionalism, your courteousness, and pray that God blesses each of you in the years to come. I will most definitely use your roses again and again Thank you for the beautiful pink roses. My daughters cried with happiness!! We were fortunate enough to have our Local Boy Scout Troop 50 hand one to each woman who attended saying Happy Valentines Day!
Arent they adorable! They were beautiful, fresh, and delivered on time! Added to 8 more pink roses, they became my tribute to Stella Marie Liberto, on the 1st anniversary of her unexpected death.
Stella was my first granddaughter. And giving out roses that day, one to represent each day she was with us, was a beautiful time of remembrance and healing. I am grateful for Global Rose making it possible.
They were gorgeous! When ordering, follow all instructions including 2 day prior to event order date for theses beauties to look their best! Great value as well!!!

It is not a guaranteed availability as it is based on the information as it is available to us.
Availability is not very good and it is recommended to select a substitute. Possible Substitutes Include:. Imported directly from our Ecuadorian or Colombian partner flower farms. Since flowers are a product of Mother Nature and due to variation in monitor resolutions, the exact color tones of this flower may vary to some degree.
When your boxes arrive, it is important to get your flowers in water as quickly as possible. Remove roses from box by cutting any straps. Do not remove the cardboard sleeve that is holding the roses together in a bunch.
It is recommended to leave the cardboard sleeve on for 4 to 8 hours while the roses hydrate and then remove once well hydrated. Remove all plastic packaging and rubber bands. Inspect your flowers. Ensure your buckets, vases containers are very clean. We recommend rinsing them with warm water. Fill the buckets or containers with at least 4 inches of fresh, cool water. If flower food is available, follow the package directions for adding it to the water. Remove any foliage from the flowers that falls below the waterline of your containers.
When removing foliage, care should be taken to not damage the stem. Removing any foliage that falls below the waterline will help prevent the growth of mold or bacteria which could cause premature wilting. Cut stems diagonally under running water using clean, sharp flower shears or scissors.
Cut approximately 1 inch from the bottom of the stem. Immediately after cutting, place the stems in the prepared water. Ensure that you have sufficient room in each container for the amount of stems you will be storing. Overcrowding may cause damage to flowers and effect proper blooming. Allow the roses at least 4 hours to hydrate well. It can take up to 8 to 12 hours to properly hydrate.
