5.2 PRODUCTION PROCESS

Mum's flower shop Production process, care and handling a flower as it travels through
the flower chain channels can greatly affect the amount of enjoyment one can experience
with a fresh cut flower arrangement. A flower's longevity is directly influenced by "time."
Time exposed to high-temperature sources. Time outside of a flower food solution before,
during and after processing. Sales, efficiencies, quality and performance of the final floral
product directly correlates to the amount of "time" that you are willing to invest following the
proper steps and processes.

Basics of Flower Care

For flower enthusiasts and the professionals who serve them freshness is key. With proper
care and nutrition you can enjoy your flowers days longer, so please follow these Mum's
flower shop care tips for lasting freshness and beauty.

Some basic steps for proper care of fresh cut flowers include the following:

Begin with a clean vase or container. If possible, do not use water that contains softeners
for flowers. The sodium (salt) content may decrease the life of some flowers.

Give all flower stems a fresh cut before placing them into flower solution. It helps ensure
hydration.

Flowers will live longer if placed away from direct sunlight, windy drafts and television sets.

Replenish the vase/container with more Flower solution as needed, due to water uptake
and evaporation.
Temperature

Store fresh flowers in a 34 - 38° F (2 - 3° C) cooler with 80 - 90% relative humidity.

Tropical flowers should be stored at 55 - 60° F (13 - 16° C) or room temperature.

Flower Metabolism

Temperature is one of the most important factors influencing the vase life of flowers. By
lowering the temperature, the flower’s metabolism respiration and transpiration is greatly
reduced. The result is a decrease in the natural chemical reactions that cause flower
senescence death. Ethylene action on flowers is greatly inhibited at lower temperatures.

Humidity

Relative Humidity is also a very important storage variable, especially if the temperature is
above 32 - 34° F. The proper amount of water in the air will inhibit the fresh cut flower from
the process of transpiration. Transpiration is a necessary process for water uptake through
the stems. Although when a flower is stored, transpiration should be reduced to prevent
water loss. Loss of hydration can cause many undesirable effects like bent neck and
premature wilting. The relative humidity should be kept at 80 - 90%. If the relative humidity
gets too high (las approaches 100% condensation will occur. Condensation on flowers can
aggravate such problems as botrytis.

Keep it Clean!

Cleanliness is usually underestimated in terms of its importance concerning postharvest


vase life. If the process starts with a dirty and microbe infested bucket, or cooler, or
anything else that might come in contact with the flowers. then all other attempts at
postharvest care will be less effective. For example, if a flower is properly treated and then
put into a dirty bucket, the flower may prematurely die from the microbes. So make sure that
everything that can come in contact with the flowers is sanitized and disinfected, including
buckets, cutters, coolers, benches, floors, etc.

“Mum's Flower shop, the Flowers always attract us towards their beauty and nature.
