Friendship and trust
Freesia carries small blooms on an angled stem, with a sweet, citrusy scent. The flowers open one after another.
Children: Not poisonous if a child tastes it.

How to care for it
- Buy stems whose first bud is nearly open; very green buds may not open.
- Pinch off faded florets so the buds above keep opening.
- Keep cool and away from fruit.
Did you know? Each freesia stem bends at a right angle below the first flower, so all the blooms face upward.
