Fresh Allium
How to care for Allium
1. Recut at least 2-3 centimeters from each stem and place in water immediately, upon arriving home or receiving of the flowers.
2. Never bash the stems.
3. Use flower food or preservative and change the water in the vase every two days.
4. Ensure vases are very clean as the stems will absorb small particles of dirt from the base of the vase, decreasing their life span.
5. As Allium ages, the flowers will droop and fade, and will also smell more of garlic.
