Q. For special occasions, how early would you recommend to start shopping for floral arrangements?
Early consultations for weddings and events with a UAE florist can help avoid last-minute stress and ensure the perfect floral arrangements.
When it comes to planning an event, it's best to start discussions and consultations 1 month to 1 year in advance, taking into account the size of the occasion, its theme, and any special requests. In the initial consultations at Camelia, clients and designers go over their preferences, designs, costs, and potential modifications.
We understand that planning a wedding day or any other special occasion is a beautiful journey, and we are dedicated to supporting customers throughout every step of the process.
Q. What would you recommend customers to look for when selecting a flower shop in the UAE?
Locate a reputable and proficient florist, then visit them to inspect their products and capabilities. Make sure the flower shop in the UAE focuses on quality, variety, personalised consultations, and excellent customer service.
At Camelia Flowers, our florists excel in understanding customers' needs, respecting their time, staying positive, and providing knowledgeable assistance with available resources.

Q. For residents who have pets at home, which flowers would you NOT recommend for safety reasons?
Some flowers can cause harm to pets if ingested, so it's important to be aware of which ones are safe to have around. If you have pets in the UAE, be careful to use or not use these certain flower types at home.
Lilies, tulips, daffodils, and chrysanthemum are all toxic to cats and dogs. If you want to add a pop of colour to your garden without worrying about your pet's safety, consider planting non-toxic flowers like roses, orchids, snapdragons, and zinnias.
Q. Which flowers last the longest?
If you're looking for flowers that will last longer, consider orchids, carnations, alstroemeria, chrysanthemums, proteas, and sunflowers.
Proper care, environmental conditions, and the type of flower all play a role in determining how long a flower will last. To keep the flowers fresh and vibrant for longer, it's important to change the water frequently, trim the stems, and ensure they're stored in a cool location.

Q. Any tips to make flowers from Camelia Flowers last longer?
Certainly! Here are some tips to help prolong the vase life of the flowers from Camelia Flowers:
- Flowers should be displayed in a cool place. Keep out of direct sunlight.
- Fill the vase with fresh, clean water.
- Replace the water every few days.
- Clean the vase before adding room-temperature water to it.
- To allow the flower to absorb as much water as possible, cut the stems ¾’ to one inch from the bottom at an angle.
- Remove dead or damaged flowers or foliage from the vase that falls below the waterline. After that, place them back into the clean vase filled with fresh water and flower food that we provide to our clients with every purchase of flowers.
