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.
