How to keep flowers blooming longer?
We share tips on how to keep flowers blooming and beautiful for longer.
Trim the tips of the stems
After receiving the cut flowers, do not forget to trim the tips. Do this with secateurs or a sharper knife. Cut the stem at a similar angle of 45 degrees, this way the area of the end of the stem will be larger, it will not be covered when bent and the flower will get more water. It is necessary to shorten the ends every 2-3 days.
Soak without leaves
It is very important to remove leaves that will be submerged in water. The leaves promote rotting and prevent the flower from spreading, so the flowers wither faster. The rotting process promotes the growth of bacteria in the vase, so this is a very important aspect.
Cold water
All flowers do not like warm water. It is important to soak the flowers in cold, clean water. It needs to be changed like shortening the stems, every 2-3 days. Also wash the vase clean. Most flowers need a little less than half a vase. However, the harder the stems, the more water is needed, for example, hydrangeas or roses need a full vase. Flowers such as tulips, gerberas, etc. only need a little water
for butterflies.
Cool and darker place
It is not for nothing that florists in flower shops usually keep flowers in refrigerators. Most of the time, flowers do not like direct sunlight and heat. Therefore, after receiving flowers at home, they should be kept in the appropriate place. Do not place the bouquet near fruit, which emits ethylene gas, which will cause the bouquet to wither faster.
