Trim the Stems and leave the plastic straws on the stems (sometimes they arrive with straws on the stems to keep them straight while hydrating)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut at an Angle: Trim the stems about 1-2 inches from the bottom using sharp, clean scissors or a floral knife. Cut at a 45-degree angle to increase the surface area for water absorption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderwater Cutting: If possible, cut the stems underwater to prevent air bubbles from entering the stems, which can block water absorption. Make sure to remove any rubber bands or plastic sleeves\/paper around the bunches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2.

Flower food provides essential nutrients and helps prevent bacterial growth.
