A little extra care can make a big difference for any size flower arrangement or fresh flower bouquet. Most floral arrangements last 4-7 days or longer, depending on the flowers used and the care they receive, if tended to. Here are the three top tips for looking after your flowers:
Keep the vase filled (or floral foam soaked) with water containing the flower food we gave you. Flower foods make flowers last longer but it is important to follow the mixing directions on the flower food packet. Most packets are to be mixed with c a pint of water. Flower foods should not be diluted with more water than is specified on the packet.
Food
If the flower food solution becomes cloudy, replace it entirely with properly mixed flower food solution. If possible, re-cut stems by removing one to two inches with a sharp knife. Be sure to use a sharp knife or clippers that will not crush the stems. Immediately place the stems into solution. Be careful not to cut yourself!
Temperature
Keep flowers in a cool spot, away from direct sunlight, heating or cooling vents, directly under ceiling fans, or on top of televisions or radiators. Appliances like televisions give off heat, which causes flowers to dehydrate. Most flowers will last longer under cool conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Flower Delivery To Italy
Do I have to pay for delivery to Italy?
No, the listed prices include delivery and any taxes.
Does Arena use its own flowers for flower delivery to the Italy?
Sending flowers from the UK across the world to Italy doesn’t make sense, as it's not environmentally friendly.
So we work with partner florists in Italy, which guarantees you get the freshest flowers and the speediest delivery.
Our partner florists in Italy are vetted and must meet exacting standards, so a high quality arrangement is assured.
Do the flowers for Italy look like the ones in the photos?
As far as possible, yes. However, each country, including Italy, has a different style of floristry
and stem availability so the exact shape and style of the finished arrangement may vary slightly.
When will I know if my flowers have been delivered? Does Arena’s usual tracking apply?
We will send the usual order confirmation notifications,
once we know your flowers have been delivered to the recipient in the Italy.
Naturally, whilst we endeavour to be as prompt as possible, due to time differences and distance,
delivery confirmations relating to flowers for Italy
will not be quite as timely as those confirming delivery of our own bouquets in the UK.
Sincere thanks for delivery of the above order and your notification of this. The birth of our grandson was a special occasion to be celebrated and from our son and daughter-in-law’s response to the flowers, you have helped us achieve exactly that. They report the flowers are beautiful and we are assured that that is so from the image they have emailed us. I have particularly appreciated your efficient follow-up process with each step of the service you offer.

A big gold star to Arena Flowers for outstanding service.
Being halfway around the world and not quite sure of how to go about sending some birthday flowers to my daughter I chose to use Arena Flowers and I was not disappointed.
They rang me twice from London to assure me that all was well, confirmed my order by email, and then confirmed the delivery.
I would not hesitate to use the company again, and highly recommend them to anyone who required quality service and product.
Thank you once again, my daughter was thrilled with her bouquet.

Just to say Gill absolutely loved the flowers so bright and summery she said it helped her forget the weather outside!! She has kept your card as well and tends to use you for her clients so hope you get some business soon.
Have been meaning to send you feed back each time I have used you as everyone always says how beautiful the flowers are and I would like to thank you for always delivering on time and without any hassle.
