Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this bouquet last?
Preserved flowers typically retain their appearance for 1–3 years or longer with proper care. Some buyers keep preserved bouquets for 5+ years. The colours may deepen or fade subtly over time, but the flowers remain soft, flexible and beautiful.
What does "preserved" mean exactly?
Preserved flowers are real fresh flowers that have been chemically treated using a plant-based preservation solution which replaces the flower's natural sap. This keeps the blooms looking and feeling like fresh flowers — soft, flexible, natural — but indefinitely, without water. Preserved flowers are genuinely different from dried flowers (which are brittle and hollow after moisture removal) or artificial flowers (which are fabric or plastic reproductions).
How is this different from fresh or dried flowers?
Fresh — recently cut, needs water, lasts 5–7 days. Dried — naturally air-dried, brittle texture, lasts 6–12 months. Preserved (this bouquet) — chemically treated, soft flexible texture, lasts 1–3 years or longer. Preserved is the premium longevity option — highest cost, longest life, softest feel.
Are the flowers really that colourful?
The red rose is naturally red; the baby's breath is naturally cream-white but professionally dyed to the vibrant blue and golden yellow shown. Preserved flowers accept dye beautifully because the preservation process replaces internal moisture with solution that carries the colour throughout the bloom. The vibrancy is genuine and permanent, not surface-painted.
Do I need to water it?
No — preserved flowers should never be watered. The preservation solution replaces water in the flowers, and adding water would damage the preservation. Simply display the bouquet in a dry location.
How should I care for it?
Keep the bouquet out of direct sunlight (which fades the vivid colours faster), out of high humidity (bathrooms, kitchens near steam), and away from air-conditioning vents that could dislodge the delicate baby's breath. Occasional gentle dusting with a soft brush or hairdryer on cool setting removes accumulated dust.
Do you offer same-day delivery in Singapore?
Yes — same-day delivery islandwide for orders placed before our cutoff time. Preserved arrangements travel exceptionally well — no wilting, no water leaks, no damage during transit — so they arrive in perfect condition.
Can I include a personalised message card?
Yes — add a custom handwritten message card at checkout, or contact us with your message and we'll include it with the delivery.
What occasions is this suitable for?
The bold colourful palette suits birthdays (especially for someone with vibrant personality), anniversaries, engagements and proposals (the red rose focal is symbolically perfect), congratulations, get-well wishes, housewarmings, and lasting home or office styling. It's also popular for corporate gifting where a distinctive lasting gift is preferred over consumable alternatives.
Is this a good gift for men?
The bold red, blue and yellow palette works well for gifting to men or gender-neutral recipients, avoiding the pastel assumptions of traditional pink or cream bouquets. Preserved flowers are also often preferred by recipients who wouldn't typically care for fresh flowers — they last without any effort.
Can I customise the colours?
Yes — we offer preserved bouquet customisation including specific colour combinations, alternative bloom types and custom wrap colours. Custom orders typically require a lead time of 1–2 weeks depending on component availability. Contact us before ordering to discuss requirements.
Is this suitable for weddings?
Preserved bouquets are increasingly popular for wedding bridal bouquets — the bride keeps a perfect version of her wedding flowers as a lasting keepsake rather than watching them fade within days. Bulk preserved bouquets are also chosen for wedding favours where guests can keep their flowers. Contact us for wedding pricing.
