4 Red Roses and Orange Spray Roses in a Concrete Pot

Some designs change the energy of a room at a glance. Here the deep, timeless romance of four red roses meets the warm, lively glow of orange spray roses, while salmon craspedia balls on tall stems add a playful modern touch. A folded aspidistra leaf and sprigs of eucalyptus bring structure and freshness, and the simple concrete pot lets the colours stand out even more. It works as a decorative object as much as a gift: on a reception desk, in a hotel lobby or on a colleague's table after a promotion. Choose it for a new job, an opening, a corporate thank you, an anniversary or a sincere apology. It arrives set in floral foam and needs almost no care, delivered the same day across Istanbul.

What is actually in it

Exactly four red roses with orange spray roses, salmon craspedia, aspidistra and eucalyptus, set in floral foam in a concrete pot 16 cm tall and 16 cm wide, about 20 to 30 cm tall in total. Dark marks at the tip of a rose petal are a trait of the variety, not a flaw.

What it looks like on day four

Arrangements in floral foam look their fullest in the first days and, with the foam kept moist, usually stay fresh for five to seven days. Some flowers may arrive as closed or half-open buds; they open in a day or two at room temperature and extend the life of the arrangement.

We photograph every listing on the bench under daylight. The image you are looking at is the arrangement, not a mood board.

The flowers are set in wet floral foam, so there is no vase to fill. Every couple of days, slowly pour a little room-temperature water onto the foam until it is moist again, without flooding the pot. Keep the arrangement in a bright spot out of direct sun and away from heaters, and pick out any bloom that fades.

The five things that actually matter

1. Recut the stems. Two centimetres off at a 45° angle, under running water if you can. Air locks in the stem are the main cause of early droop.
2. Strip leaves below the waterline. Submerged foliage rots and turns the water bacterial within a day.
3. Change the water, do not just top it up. Every two days, with the sachet we include.
4. Keep them away from fruit. Ripening fruit releases ethylene, which ages cut flowers dramatically faster.
5. Cool and out of direct sun. A radiator or a sunny windowsill will halve the vase life of anything.

Do all five and you should see nine days from this bouquet rather than five. The long version is in the journal.

Delivery

Same-day delivery is available across all 39 districts of Istanbul, on the same nine daily delivery windows from 09:00 to 22:00. Delivery is always free, on every order, everywhere we deliver in Istanbul, no threshold, no surcharge.

We deliver in our own vans with our own drivers. That is more expensive than handing it to a parcel courier, and it is the reason 98.2% of orders land inside the window you chose.

Substitution policy

Fresh flowers are an agricultural product. Occasionally the market does not have what we planned for, especially with seasonal stems like peonies. When that happens we do one of two things, and never anything else:

• Substitute a stem of equal or greater value in the same colour family, and email you a photograph before dispatch so you can approve it or cancel for a full refund.
• If no acceptable substitute exists, we call you. We will not quietly send something different and hope you do not notice.

Cancellations

Change or cancel free until 18:00 the day before delivery. After that the flowers are cut and conditioned specifically for your order, so cancellation is not possible — this is the perishable-goods exception under distance-selling rules, and it is stated again at checkout before you pay.
