Soft Flower Sticks were created wiuth scientific effort to help prolong the quality and life of flowers during shipping and handling. The flower tubes currently used can often stress flowers by creating suction tension reducing the ability to take up water. Others can form an air bubble in the upper half of the tube when the flowers are lying down reducing the uptake of water. Soft Flower Sticks have been designed to overcome these problems and promote food flower quality.
