Fresh Flower Bouquet After Care

So you've just brought home a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers, now what? With a few simple tips, you can keep them looking vibrant and fresh for longer. Here's a beginner's guide to caring for your fresh flowers:

 Trim the Stems

Start by trimming the stems of your flowers at an angle. This will help the flowers better absorb water and nutrients. Use a sharp pair of scissors and cut about an inch off the bottom of the stems.

 Choose the Right Vase

Use a clean vase that is the right size for your bouquet. Make sure the vase is thoroughly cleaned with soap and water to prevent the growth of bacteria that can harm your flowers.

 Change the Water Regularly

It's important to change the water in the vase every 2-3 days. This will help prevent the water from becoming cloudy and filled with bacteria, which can shorten the lifespan of your flowers.

 Keep Them Cool

Avoid placing your flowers in direct sunlight. Instead, place them in a cool spot away from drafts to help them last longer.

 Remove Wilting Flowers

As flowers start to wilt, remove them from the bouquet. This will allow the remaining flowers to continue to thrive and look their best.

With these simple tips, you can enjoy your fresh flowers for days to come. Remember, a little care goes a long way when it comes to keeping your blooms looking their best!
