About our preserved roses

Preserved roses are real, handpicked Ecuadorian roses that undergo a specialized process to maintain their beauty for over a year โ€” with no water and no sunlight required. Unlike dried or artificial flowers, they retain their soft, natural appearance exactly as they were at peak bloom.

With proper care, Rose Maven arrangements last 12+ months โ€” and some even beyond two years. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity and they'll hold their beauty far longer than any fresh arrangement ever could.

No โ€” the preservation process removes the natural fragrance. That said, many customers lightly spritz their roses with a personal perfume or essential oil for a beautiful custom touch.

Yes โ€” every arrangement features 100% real Ecuadorian roses. Carefully preserved to maintain their luxurious, natural look for years to come. Nothing artificial, ever.

Care & maintenance

Minimal care is all they need:

  • No water, ever. Unlike fresh flowers, preserved roses don't need hydration โ€” water will damage them.
  • Keep away from direct sunlight. UV exposure causes fading over time.
  • Avoid humidity and excessive touching. Preserved petals are delicate and can absorb moisture from the air.
  • Dust lightly if needed. A soft makeup brush works perfectly to keep them looking fresh.

Preserved petals are delicate and can occasionally shift during shipping. If this happens, a light repositioning by hand or a gentle trim with small shears can restore their shape beautifully.
