Flower Care & Maintenance
1. Choose a Clean Vase:
Start by selecting a clean vase for your flowers. Wash the vase with warm, soapy water, and rinse it thoroughly to remove any residues that could potentially harbor harmful bacteria. This ensures a clean environment for your flowers to thrive.
2. Trim the Stems:
Using sharp, clean scissors or pruning shears, trim the stems of your fresh cut flowers at a 45-degree angle. This angled cut increases the surface area for water absorption, enabling the flowers to hydrate more effectively.
3. Remove Excess Foliage:
Remove any leaves that will be submerged in water in the vase. Submerged foliage can lead to bacterial growth, which can shorten the vase life of your flowers. Leave only the uppermost leaves and flowers above the waterline.
4. Use Fresh Water:
Fill the clean vase with fresh, lukewarm water. Avoid using cold water, as it can shock the flowers. Lukewarm water helps the flowers absorb nutrients and stay hydrated more efficiently.
5. Add Flower Food:
If your bouquet comes with a packet of flower food, follow the instructions and add it to the water. Flower food contains essential nutrients that nourish the flowers and help prolong their freshness.
6. Change the Water Regularly:
Every two to three days, replace the water in the vase with fresh, clean water. Before refilling, trim the stems slightly to ensure they can continue to take up water effectively.
7. Keep Them Cool:
Place your vase of fresh cut flowers in a cool location away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts. Exposure to heat and sunlight can cause flowers to wilt more quickly.
8. Avoid Fruit and Ethylene:
Keep your flowers away from ripening fruits, as fruits produce ethylene gas, which can accelerate the aging of the flowers. Ethylene-sensitive flowers, such as roses, lilies, and tulips, are particularly susceptible to its effects.
9. Re-Trim and Refresh:
If you notice that the stems have become mushy or the water has become cloudy, re-trim the stems and refresh the water immediately to avoid bacterial buildup.
