Gerber Daisies are shipped directly from our farms with no water tubes. Before shipping your flowers, we prepared them for their journey with proper hydration methods. If your flowers appear sleepy and thirsty after their journey it is absolutely NORMAL. Just follow these simple steps and your flowers will bloom delightfully. 

PREMIUM GERBERA DAISY CARE INSTRUCTIONS.

1. Remove flowers from box by cutting any straps and also remove all paper and plastic sleeves covering the flowers. Do not remove the rubber bands holding the flowers together, the plastic tubes on the stems, or flower nets (not all gerber daisy shipments have rubberbands and/or nets). Leave the rubber bands and nets for the first 4 hours or if you wish until you are ready to start arranging flowers. Leave the plastic tubes on the stems until you are ready to arrange the flowers.
2. Fill containers with at least 4 inches of fresh, cool water. 
3. Cut stems diagonally approximately a half an inch from bottom under running water with sharp scissors or knife. 
4. Immediately after cutting, place the stems in the prepared water. 
5. Allow flowers at least 4 hours to hydrate well. 
6. Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, drafts or excessive heat. 
7. Gerbera stems have a tendency to get blocked with bacteria which causes flowers to wilt prematurely. To prevent premature wilting make sure to change water every 1-2 days. Assure that your flowers have sufficient water. Gerber Daisies will drink an exceptionally large amount of water upon arrival.
   
8. Keep Gerberas away from fruits, vegetables and/or plants which produce ethylene Gas. Ethylene in the surrounding area could cause your Gerberas to mature faster.

SUPER GERBERA DAISY CARE INSTRUCTIONS.

1. Open the box and remove the trays of flowers, but do not remove the flowers from the trays. This will require that you carefully remove the staples holding the trays in the box. Take caution when removing the trays from the box since the stems will be intertwined. Leave the flowers in the trays for hydrating purposes (this will encourage straight stems).
2. Fill tall plastic buckets with cool water with at least 6 inches of water.
   
3. Lay the tray on a table and cut stems diagonally approximately an inch from bottom. 
4. Immediately after cutting, place the stems in the prepared water. The tray should rest on the top of the bucket, and the stems will dangle into the bucket with the ends submerged in water. This will allow the stems to hang straight while hydrating.
5. Allow flowers at least 4 hours to hydrate well.
6. Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, drafts or excessive heat. 
7. Gerbera stems have a tendency to get blocked with bacteria which causes flowers to wilt prematurely. To prevent premature wilting make sure to change water every 24 hours. Assure that your flowers have sufficient water. Gerber Daisies will drink an exceptionally large amount of water upon arrival.
   
8. Keep Gerberas away from fruits, vegetables and/or plants which produce ethylene Gas. Ethylene in the surrounding area could cause your Gerberas to mature faster.
