Flower Care Tips
Discover essential flower care tips to keep your blooms fresh and vibrant for longer.
Choosing the Right Flowers
Selecting the right flowers is the first step in ensuring their longevity. When choosing flowers, look for ones with firm petals and vibrant colours. Avoid blooms with brown or wilting edges. At Heart in Hand Florist, our flowers are sourced from sustainable farms, ensuring they are fresh and eco-friendly. Remember, different flowers have different lifespans, so choosing the right type for your needs is essential.
Proper Hydration is Key
Once you bring your flowers home, it's crucial to keep them properly hydrated. Start by trimming the stems at a 45-degree angle to allow better water absorption. Use a clean vase and fill it with fresh water. For best results, change the water every two days and remove any leaves that fall below the waterline to prevent bacteria growth. Adding a teaspoon of sugar or a floral preservative can also help extend the life of your flowers.
Ideal Placement and Care
Where you place your flowers can significantly affect their lifespan. Keep your flowers away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts. Flowers thrive in cool environments. Additionally, misting the petals with water can help keep them hydrated and fresh. Remember, some flowers are more delicate than others and may require additional care. At Heart in Hand Florist, we provide detailed care instructions with every bouquet to ensure your flowers stay beautiful for as long as possible.
