Flower Bouquet Care Guide – Keep Your Blooms Fresh Longer
Introduction
Receiving a beautiful bouquet is always a delight, but keeping it fresh can be a challenge. With a few simple care tips, your flowers can stay vibrant for days. At 100flower.ae, we ensure every bouquet is delivered fresh across the UAE, so caring for it becomes easy.
Step 1: Prepare Your Vase
Choose a clean vase and fill it with fresh, lukewarm water. Clean the vase thoroughly to prevent bacteria growth, which can cause wilting.
Step 2: Trim the Stems
Cut 1-2 cm from the stems at an angle using sharp scissors. This improves water absorption and keeps flowers fresh longer.
Step 3: Proper Placement
Place your bouquet in a cool, well-lit area but away from direct sunlight and drafts. Avoid putting it near fruits, as they emit ethylene gas that accelerates wilting.
Step 4: Refresh Water Regularly
Change the water every 1-2 days and remove any wilted leaves or petals. Re-cut the stems slightly each time to improve water intake.
Step 5: Use Flower Food
If your bouquet comes with flower food, add it to the water. It provides essential nutrients to extend freshness.
