Cassia – Indigo Purple Preserved Hydrangea Arrangement in Short White Earthenware Vase – Luxe

Dried flowers are air-dried after blooming, resulting in a more rustic, textured finish. Preserved flowers go through a more advanced process where the natural moisture is replaced with plant-safe preserving agents to maintain a fresh, soft look and feel.

Thanks to our preservation process, the flowers don’t wilt or turn brown. With proper care, preserved flowers will look their best for about a year — and sometimes even a year and a half. To ensure their longevity, please follow the care instructions provided.

No — Nordblooms are 100% water-free. Our preserved arrangements require no watering or ongoing maintenance.

Preserved flowers maintain their beauty for many months, often lasting a full year or longer with proper care. While some gentle fading or tonal shifts may naturally occur—especially with prolonged sunlight exposure—these subtle changes are part of the charm of working with real, preserved botanicals. Most customers enjoy vibrant, long-lasting color well beyond the first 12 months.

To care for preserved flowers simply keep them indoors, out of direct sunlight, and away from moisture and vents. Avoid touching the flowers, as the preserved petals are delicate. For full care instructions, [click here].

No – preserved flowers should not be removed from the vase. If your florals arrived styled in a vase, they are fixed in place and not intended to be taken out — doing so will damage the arrangement. Bouquets and loose stems may be arranged as you desire.
