Purple Lisianthus and Orange Spray Roses in Kraft Wrap

Bold purple and warm orange make this bouquet impossible to overlook. Ruffled purple lisianthus meet bright orange spray roses, while purple limonium and slices of dried lemon add unexpected texture. Lavender and eucalyptus bring a fresh, calming scent that you notice as soon as the paper is opened. Everything is hand-tied and wrapped in natural kraft paper with an orange ribbon, a relaxed, modern look that works for a birthday, a thank you or a friend who deserves a lift. It is a bouquet for someone who likes colour and does not want the usual roses. Order before the cut-off and it goes out the same day to any district of Istanbul.

What is actually in it

Purple lisianthus and orange spray roses with purple limonium, dried lemon slices, lavender and eucalyptus, hand-tied in kraft paper with an orange ribbon, about 40 to 50 cm tall. Exact stem counts can vary slightly with the season.

What it looks like on day four

Fresh-cut flowers keep changing after they arrive: some buds open over the first two or three days, which is part of what keeps the arrangement looking good for longer. With fresh water and a trim every couple of days, expect around seven days of good looks, sometimes more.

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

Unwrap the bouquet as soon as it arrives and untie any string. Strip the lower leaves, cut the stems 3 to 5 cm at an angle, ideally under water, and place them in a clean vase filled halfway with room-temperature water and the flower food provided. Change the water every day or two, re-trim the stems each time, and keep the vase away from direct sun, heaters and draughts.

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.
