Taking care of flowers can be easy and rewarding. First, cut the stems at a 45-degree angle and remove lower foliage to prevent bacterial growth. Place your flowers in a clean vase filled with lukewarm water and flower food. Change the water every 2-3 days, and trim the stems by half an inch each time. Keep your flowers away from heat, bright light, and ripening fruit. Some flowers require different levels of care, so check online or ask us for specific instructions.
The lifespan of flowers can vary depending on the type of flower and how well they are cared for. On average, most cut flowers last 5-7 days. Roses and lilies tend to last longer, while other delicate flowers may last only a few days. Proper care and hydration can help prolong the life of your flowers.
We have a few tips that can help you revive your dying blooms and make them last longer. Firstly, make sure you clean the vase before adding fresh water, as bacteria can grow in dirty vases. Secondly, add a tiny amount of bleach to the water, as it will help to prevent bacteria growth. Thirdly, recut the stems at an angle before placing them in fresh water, as this will help the flowers to absorb water. Fourthly, adding sugar to the water can provide the flowers with energy to stay fresh. Finally, trim any dead foliage from the stems as they can affect the flowers' ability to absorb water.
Dried flowers are preserved blooms that have been dried out to extend their life. They can last for years if maintained properly. To maintain dried flowers, keep them out of direct sunlight and away from moisture. You can also use a light coat of hairspray to help preserve their shape.
Floral preservatives typically contain a mix of sugar, bleach, and an acidic ingredient, such as citric acid. These ingredients help to nourish the flowers and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
Yes, you can dry out flowers to preserve them. Once your flowers are fully opened, take them out of water and hang them upside down for a few weeks to help keep their shape and colour. Hang them upside down in a cool, dry place until they are completely dry.
Not all flowers are great for drying out of course. Many drop their leaves and petals so all you will be left with is bare stems, but it is always fun to experiment!
The following flowers are excellent for drying: Roses, Paper Daisy, Baby's Breath, Misty, Statice, Ferns, Eucalyptus and so many more!
Roses are a popular flower and require a little extra care to help them last longer. Firstly, make sure you remove all the leaves from the stems, as the leaves can harbour bacteria that can lead to a smelly flower disease. Secondly, make sure you cut the stems at an angle and place them in fresh water as soon as possible. Thirdly, roses love fresh water, so make sure you change the water every two days. Finally, keep your roses away from direct sunlight and drafts, as this can cause them to wilt faster.
If you have allergies, look for flowers with low pollen counts or no scent. Some good options include roses, daffodils, tulips, and hydrangeas. Be sure to talk to your florist about your allergies so they can recommend the best flowers for you.
Well there are traditionally different flowers for different occasions, but why stick with tradition? Trust your gut as to what you believe they'll like best and what suitable for the particular occassion.
Flowers may come closed or in bud form because they are still developing. This means that they will open up over time and reveal their full beauty. Don't worry – your flowers will bloom in just a few days!
Most flowers can only last a few hours without water, but some can last for a day or two. It's best to keep your flowers in water as soon as possible to help them last longer. If you're transporting flowers, keep them in a bucket of water or wrap the stems in a damp paper towel to keep them hydrated. Or why not try our posy jars?
There are several reasons why flowers may die prematurely. One common reason is lack of hydration, so make sure to change the water every 2-3 days and trim the stems regularly. Flowers may also be exposed to too much heat or light, so keep them away from direct sunlight and heating or cooling vents. Finally, bacteria can build up in vases, so make sure to clean your vase thoroughly before use.
As in other agricultural markets, supply and demand play a major role in determining product prices. On Valentine's Day, for instance, over 100 million roses are sold nationwide. The rose crop season begins after Christmas, and they require additional labour at all levels of production. Therefore, Valentine's Day and other major floral holidays are proportionally more expensive.
To make your flower arrangements last longer, there are a few things you can do. First, start by cleaning the vase with a mixture of bleach and water to eliminate harmful bacteria. Then, condition the flowers by cutting all green and woody stems at a 45-degree angle and removing any leaves that would sit under the waterline. Feed the flowers by providing sugar for nourishment and an acidic ingredient, such as apple cider vinegar, to help them absorb water. Refresh the water frequently to make sure stem ends are covered and change the water every five days while recutting the stems using the same method. This will help to keep your flowers looking fresh for longer.
There are some flowers that are imported from abroad, such as roses, and when we buy them from the wholesaler, they look perfect since they are all kept in a chiller, but cut flowers don't have a due date on the packaging, or the date of cutting off the plant on their packaging. As a result, I can only rely on how they look at the time of purchase. Therefore, there is a possibility that sometimes I send flowers that look fine, but wilt within a few days. I will be more than happy to assist you if you send me a picture of the problem flower in your arrangement.
