Cheerful Gerberas, Lilies and Roses

Vivid colours and varied flower shapes give the arrangement a cheerful character. It is suitable for congratulations and can add a colourful accent to an interior. Mini gerberas need only 4–5 cm of water in a vase; deeper immersion softens their hollow stems and speeds up rotting. Keep the vase of roses away from direct sunlight, draughts and ripening fruit, as ethylene from the fruit speeds up wilting.
