Have you ever wondered why Valentine's flowers are red? We all know that Valentine's day is a holiday of love and what better way of expressing the love by gifting one red roses? Red roses is universally known to mean love, passion and desire. However if you're looking to convey a different message apart from desire then we recommend pink flowers - they show appreciation, gratitude, and recognition, making them a great way to say 'thank you!' as well as 'I love you'. Another great choice is purple flowers - it is connected to royalty, dignity, and sophistication, so it's a great choice for someone you admire or respect.

Did you know? About 40% of valentine's roses in the UK are imported from overseas. This is because February climate in UK makes it difficult to meet the demand of roses. To beat this - you can source Kenyan flowers this February specifically, our lovely mixed boxes. They come in packaged boxes of selections you prefer meaning you get a little bit of everything- flowers, fillers and foliage!
Don't forget our order cut off is usually on Mondays at 10:00 p.m. UK time

Farm Fridays

Cut flower harvesting at our source farms is usually done during the morning hours due to a number of factors - one being temperature. During morning hours, the temperature is low, therefore respiration is low, the plant water content is high. As the day goes by and temperature rises progressively dehydrating the flowers and making noon time not ideal for harvest. Harvesting time and temperature is important because they play a big part in determining how long a flower’s vaselife is going to be.

Farm Fridays⁠
Did you know? Ethylene is a colourless gaseous plant hormone, its largest producers being fruits, vegetables and floral products. It regulates many processes of plant growth, development and death. But just as it has good side effects, ethylene has negative effects on flowers, it is known to cause bud and leaf fall, leaf yellowing, loss of deep colour, flower and petal drop, irregular bud opening and death. So good to remember to store your flowers away from ethylene producing fruits like apples and pears.⁠

Have you ever wondered why scented roses are so popular for weddings but rarely seen in the supermarket? Scented roses are known for their shorter vase life compared to standard roses - As a result they are mostly used for events like weddings while standard roses are more commonly purchased as part of the weekly shop. Roses from Kenya are particularly know to last more than 7 days! Want to order your long lasting fresh cut flowers? Send us an e-mail on [email protected]

Spray roses are gaining popularity by the day due to their elegant appearance and versatility. Spray roses usually have about 3-6 heads per stem hence the name ‘spray’ which differs from their standard counterparts who are known for their single headed stems. They also have relatively smaller head sizes and slimmer stems and can be found in different colours from red, yellow, white, pink, orange and lilac. Want a taste of sprays? You can find them in our Bright box, Ice cream box and Classic shop box. Visit our website to find more information about our mixed boxes - www.safarigardenkenya.com⁠

Due to the nature of our climate in Kenya, our flowers are able to grow under natural light throughout the year. Sunlight provides flower plants with all the energy they need to create food for themselves. The process is known as Photosynthesis. ⁠
Some farm farms also incorporate artificial lighting during night hours to increase 'day length' as required by certain plants.⁠

Did you know flowers and their plant parts make really good compost ingredients? Our source farms use their 'waste flowers' and leaves to make compost instead of discarding them.⁠
Using flowers as compost put the nutrients they were taken to grow them back into the system. is a big step towards healthier farming. Compost is also a good substitute for chemical fertilizers.⁠

The water you use for vasing flowers also plays a part in determining vase life.
You want to make sure your water is clean and free from bacteria - this goes for your vase too!⁠
Florists, what other 'tricks' do you use to increase your flowers' vase life?

You have probably heard you need to cut stems at an angle before vasing but do you know why?
Cutting stems at an angle adds more surface area enabling the flowers to take in more water, whilst also removing any blocked sieve cells so that the water can be easily absorbed up the xylem vessels.⁠ ⁠
