Hydrangea popularity continues to soar! Featured in everything from haute couture wedding designs to everyday bouquets, hydrangeas rock. What’s the secret to keeping these big blooms happy? Cut flower stems above old wood and treat with Chrysal Rose Pro Hydration. From grower level to flower shop, Rose Pro Hydration is appropriate for use at every step of the chain. Don’t be fooled by the name, Rose Pro doubles as a hydrangea helper, keeps viburnum vibrant and peonies perfect. In fact, it’s a superior hydration solution for any flower! (except anthuriums) 

Prepare solutions by adding 10ml per liter or quart of cold water. Let flowers drink at least 1-2 hours, overnight is better. After 3 days, transfer flowers into Chrysal RosePro Vase solution or Professional # 2 to provide the energy-boost (sugar) needed for flowers to stand tall in the vase. 

Focused on green practices? Properly mixed hydration solutions are appropriate for reuse up to 6-7 days in the cooler; one way to conserve water and save labor--both sustainable actions. Spent, diluted solution can be safely disposed down the drain. 

Use high-performance solutions for a first-class finish!
