garden spray rose Light Pink Spray Rose Flower | DIY Wedding Flowers | Flower Moxie 30 Stems

The Good: Spray roses are durable, versatile, and easy to work with. No matter what your vision is, these babies will fit in.  Spray roses are wonderful for DIY boutonnieres, corsages, bouquets, centerpieces, large arrangements, and floral crowns.  

The Bad:  Like a standard rose, spray roses sometimes need time to open and can have bruised 'guard petals' that need to be removed.  Because there are so many buds on each stem, it's not uncommon to pluck off an ugly bud here and there.  Overall, we find spray roses to be hardy and predictable!

• Give the stems a fresh cut, and place in cool water. 
• Remove leaves below the waterline
• Pluck off any brown or spotted buds or guard petals
• To encourage opening, you may place them outside in nice weather or in a sunny spot.

Spray Roses are considered a 'Filler Flower' .  Based on our design suggestions here's our quantity recommendations:

• Bridal Bouquet:  5-8 stems
• Maids:  3-5 stems
• Bouts:  1-2 buds
• Corsages:  2-3 buds
• Centerpieces:  3-5 stems
• Large Arrangements:  1-2 bunches

Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions.  All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine.  For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop),  incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.  

Acceptable Subs:  Cream ranunculus, lisianthus, standard roses, carnations paired with another flower, or another bloom that works with your specific color palette
