This 10 ounce tub will provide you with enough preservative / food for 30 quarts of preservative - water solution or approximately 24 vase arrangements of fresh flowers. A good Floral Preservative / Food is essential for maximizing the vase life of arranged flowers.  There are three primary ingredients in floral food / preservatives which work in harmony to extend the vase life of cut flowers.  The primary ingredients include a sugar which provides nourishment for the cut flowers,  a biocide which inhibits the growth of fungi and bacteria,  and an acidifier, which lowers the pH of the water. Review our pages on Flower Care & Handling for additional information.

For years I searched for the perfect tool for stripping the thorns from rose stems.  While I found many effective thorn stripping tools, most also damaged the rose stems.  And, a scarified rose stem will not drink water.  Five years ago, we found the perfect tool for stripping thorns.  A glove with a soft, yet totally "thorn-proof" coating.  By simply grasping the rose stem, then pulling your gloved hand down the rose stem, you can remove or blunt the rose thorns. Our Rose Gloves come in three sizes: Size 8, Women's Small, Size 9, Women's Large, Size 10, Men's Medium.
