We all love fresh flowers, but they end up with a stinky, floppy mess after some time. So, we must follow some tips to keep our flower plant healthy and blooming.
Some of the flower care tips that will help make your flowers last longer are here.
- Before placing flowers into a vase and every time you change the water, trim a half-inch of stem off. If you want to retain a strong shape on hand-tied bouquets, then keep the string tied around stems. Keep them away from drafts and extreme temperatures, which can dry out the flowers in no time and cause wilting.
- Water Wisely! Flowers won’t last long without water. Fill your vase with room temperature water and add in a packet of flower food. Besides, ensure that the packet has been correctly mixed and that the water is not too concentrated or too diluted.
- Do not place your flower arrangement in the path of cigarette smoke or near fruit. This is because the ethylene gas is harmful to many flower types. Apart from this, avoid placing arrangements in windowsills or other areas with full sun where flowers can wilt because of overheating.
- Clean your vase carefully and change out the water and flower food regularly (after 2 or 4 days). Any dirt left in the vase can lead to bacteria formation and that can harmful to flowers. Also, do use hot water to clean your vase because it will kill any microscopic organisms and will enable flowers to live more.
- To trim flowers use sharp scissors as they make sure a clean cut that leaves cells unharmed, you are a lot smashing, and so damaging, the tissue at the end of the stem. Also, do not use scissors to cut flowers as they can crush the stems as well as prevent water absorption.
- Must place the bundle of flowers in the vase; make sure that it sat in the extent to the vase, top up with newly drawn water at that point until the point when the vase is 75% percent full. If flowers came in plastic, then remove this. Also, keep them away from aging organic products. Keep them away from bright light or heat. This is because sun and heat will encourage them to mature and so quicken their demise.
- Keep the flower vase filled with water. Flowers and foliage stems must be submerged. Flowers stay longer and fresher when they can get a drink. If flowers came in a basket with foam, then add fresh water every day. Remove dead or wilting leaves immediately and stems from fresh flower arrangements.
