the arrangement arrived beautiful - though the hydrangea wilted after 2 days.

Hi Patricia.....Thank you for taking the time to let us know about the hydrangea wilting in the arrangement you purchased. Hydrangea are always a challenge! We hydrate them as soon as they come in and treat them with a natural preservative to enhance the process. We also "test" them weekly to see how long they hold up out of the cooler. That time varies even for us. Sometimes they last a day or two and we've had them last for over a week. On top of being finicky, they are also one of the most requested flowers. People love them so we continue to offer them in our designs. Alas, flowers are for the moment. We just wish with hydrangea, the moment lasted a little longer. I'm happy it arrived beautifully and we certainly appreciate your orders! Give us a call next time and we can discuss the flowers to use for you. Thanks so much.
