Edward Clippers Ikebana Pruning Scissors

$20.50

We love movies. So much so that we steal ideas from them. Edward is an old-school type of scissor for cutting plants. Like the ones Mr Miyagi used in Karate Kid. But guess which movie Edward Scissors is named after? No, it’s not Jaws. 

A (Mostly) Simple Guide to Cutting Your Flowers

So, you’ve decided to make a floral arrangement. Good for you! Let’s make sure your flowers live long enough to impress someone (even if that someone is just you).

  1. Start with Clean Scissors: Yes, I know you’re tempted to grab those kitchen scissors you use to cut open snack bags, but at least give them a wash first. Your flowers don’t need a side of Dorito dust, thanks.
  2. Cut at a 45-Degree Angle: This isn’t geometry class, but cutting the stems at an angle gives them more surface area to drink up water. It’s like giving your flowers a straw instead of expecting them to chug from a bottle.
  3. Trim Under Water (If You’re Fancy): If you really want to go pro, cut the stems underwater to avoid air bubbles. Sure, it feels a little extra, but your flowers didn’t ask to suffocate.
  4. Ditch the Underwater Leaves: Strip off any leaves that would sit below the waterline. Unless, of course, you’re into the whole swamp aesthetic.
  5. Give Them a Fresh Cut if They’ve Been Sitting Out: If your flowers have been out of water for a while, trim the stems again. They need a fresh start—don’t we all?
  6. Change the Water Regularly: Every couple of days, change the water and give the stems a trim. It’s not that hard, and your flowers will thank you by not dying immediately.
