The Secret to Long-Lasting Floral Arrangements
Fresh flowers bring life to any space, but how do you keep them looking vibrant for as long as possible?
Here are a few simple tips to extend the life of your floral arrangements:
1. Fresh Cut, Fresh Start -Trim the stems at an angle before placing them in water. This allows for better water absorption.
2. Clean Water is Key -Change the water every two days to prevent bacteria buildup. Adding a drop of bleach or a teaspoon of sugar can help nourish the blooms.
3. Avoid Direct Sunlight & Heat -Keep arrangements away from direct sun, heat vents, and fruit (which releases ethylene gas that speeds up wilting).
4. Remove Wilting Blooms -As flowers start to fade, remove them to keep the rest of the arrangement fresh.
With these easy steps, your flowers will stay beautiful longer! Want to learn more? Join one of our floral workshops and get hands-on experience in floral care and design.
