* Our roses are real roses. And naturally no two roses will be exactly the same in size. Slight variances in size and colour is normal. We cannot guarantee any two roses to be exactly the same in your arrangements. Slight differences are normal.
*Roses are real roses that have been through a preservation process. This process involves the roses being dried, therefore the roses will appear dry and sometimes the edges seem slightly wrinkly or cracked. This is absolutely normal. Please remember these roses are not fresh and because they are natural there is no such thing as a perfect rose. Petals, sizes, colours, edges will always be different one rose to another. If you want a rose that is 100% perfect unfortunately a long lasting preserved rose is not suitable for you. Please keep an open mind when purchasing.
* Our roses are real rose heads that are glued to a plastic faux stem. Because the rose heads can be heavy and may require more glue, this may cause the glue to slightly run. This is absolutely normal. Too little glue placed can also cause the rose heads to fall off. Not all bloom boxes may come with stems however. Depending on the style of the box the shorter boxes as well as the boxes with a drawer may not include stems.
*Bloom boxes with stems will include GREEN stems unless indicated otherwise or customized by your custom order.

For best care, leave them displayed and away from being touched.
