Our Galax Leaves are hand-picked for their vibrant color and uniform round shape. Often referred to as "Beetleweed," these leaves are incredibly versatile and can withstand a wide range of temperatures, making them a reliable staple for wedding and event floral work.

Beyond their use in corsages and boutonnieres, Galax leaves are excellent for layering in small centerpieces or covering floral foam in low-profile designs. Their deep green, waxy surface provides a beautiful contrast to delicate blooms like orchids, ranunculus, and spray roses.

Taking care of flowers purchased in bulk is essential to maintain their freshness and extend their vase life, especially if you're using them for resale, events, or arrangements. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you process and care for bulk flowers:

Initial Processing Upon Arrival

  1. Unpack Immediately

    • Remove flowers from boxes carefully to avoid damage.
    • Keep them in a cool, shaded area during unpacking.

  2. Inspect and Sort

    • Check for damaged or wilted stems and remove them.
    • Sort by type and stem length if needed.

  3. Hydration Prep

    • Remove any foliage that will be below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth.
    • Recut stems at a 45° angle under running water or submerged in water to prevent air bubbles.

  4. Use Clean Containers

    • Sanitize buckets or vases before use.
    • Fill with fresh, lukewarm water and add floral preservative (contains sugar, acidifier, and biocide).

Conditioning and Storage

  1. Hydration Period

    • Let flowers hydrate for 4–12 hours in a cool, dark place before arranging or selling.

  2. Temperature Control

    • Store at 34–38°F (1–3°C) for most flowers.
    • Avoid storing near fruits (especially apples) which emit ethylene gas that can age flowers prematurely.

  3. Humidity

    • Maintain high humidity (around 90%) to prevent dehydration.

Ongoing Care

  1. Daily Maintenance

    • Change water every 1–2 days.
    • Recut stems every few days to improve water uptake.
    • Remove any wilting or dead flowers promptly.

  2. Avoid Direct Sunlight and Heat

    • Keep flowers away from heat sources, drafts, and direct sunlight.

  3. Use Floral Preservatives

    • Continue using preservatives with each water change to nourish and protect the flowers.
