Care tips:
Upon arrival, recut the stems at a 45° angle and place them in clean water. Keep the water fresh by changing it every 2–3 days and removing any foliage below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth. Once the flowers open, remove the pollen to avoid staining and extend freshness. Store lilies at a temperature of 2–5°C, away from ethylene-producing fruits and flowers, until ready for use.
