Here's a guide on how to care for Preserved & Dried flowers in Singapore

General Care Tips

  • Handle with Care: Preserved and dried flowers are delicate and fragile. Avoid bending, pressing, or squishing the petals and stems.

  • Keep Indoors: Place your flowers in an indoor, well-ventilated space.

  • Avoid Sunlight: Keep them away from direct sunlight, as this can cause discoloration and fading.

  • Steer Clear of Water: Do not water the flowers. Avoid placing them in humid areas, such as bathrooms.

  • Combat Humidity: Singapore's high humidity is a key factor in how long your flowers last. To extend their lifespan, consider placing them in an air-conditioned or dry room. Using silica gel packets or a dehumidifier nearby can be very helpful.

Dealing with Mold and Discoloration

  • Discoloration: Over time, the flowers may naturally discolour or fade due to moisture in the air. This is a normal part of the aging process.

  • Mold: During periods of high humidity, especially the rainy season, mold may appear. You can gently clean it off using a small, soft brush and a dry tissue. If the mold doesn't come off, you may need to carefully cut away the affected parts.

Lifespan

Preserved and dried flowers are real flowers that have been treated to last. They're at their most beautiful during the first few months, and with proper care in a dry, well-ventilated space — away from Singapore's humidity — they can continue to bring joy for 1 to 3 years.

For Wedding Flowers

  • As these flowers are fragile, expect some wear and tear on boutonnieres and wrist corsages, especially after being worn all day.

  • It is not recommended to throw bridal bouquets made of preserved or dried flowers. Please handle them with care.
