The most important factor to keep flowers last long: clean water
You should:
- Always keep the vase filled or floral foam soaked with clean
water containing a flower food.
- If the water becomes cloudy, which could happen within a few
to several days, you must change the water entirely.
- Keep flowers in a cool spot (65-72 degrees), away from direct
sunlight, heating, or cooling vents, directly under ceiling fans,
or on top of televisions or radiators.
The following tips will prolong the vase life even longer:
- Pinch off any dead flowers and leaves.
- Recut stems by removing about one inch every 3-4 days.
