One of the most frequent compliments we receive is how long our flowers last. Here are a few tips from the professionals to extend the life of your flowers:
Your flowers have been treated with flower food in the water they arrive in. Additives are unnecessary, even if you change the water.
It is also good to use a spray botle to spray the blooms with water. If your bouquet includes hydrangeas, spray the blooms often. Hydrangea love showers! Always remember that flowers are there to enjoy and memorialize a moment. Let them do their thing! Change the water when it becomes cloudy. Remember, if you wouldn’t drink it - your flower probably doesn’t want to either. It isn’t a good idea to have the leaves of the stems immersed in the water. The leaves decompose and form algae, shortening the life of the flowers. If you’re comfortable with the temperature in the room, so are the flowers! Don’t put them near heaters, open windows in the wintertime, or in direct burning sunlight. Make sure there is enough water in the vase for stems to be fully immersed. It’s good to top off your vase once a day with more water. If you remove the flowers from the vase, use a pair of scissors or clippers to give the flowers a fresh cut. We try to avoid designing in floral foam. There are a designs however that require it’s use. If the arrangement you selected does, you should add water daily to make sure the foam is fully soaked at all times. Floral Foamed designs do dry out faster than traditional vased designs.
