How to Keep Summer Flowers Fresh at Home
1. Trim the Stems Diagonally
Cutting the stems at a 45° angle allows better water absorption and prevents blockage at the base.
2. Change the Water Regularly
Use clean, fresh water, and replace it every 48 hours. Remove submerged leaves to avoid bacteria buildup.
3. Avoid Direct Sunlight and Heat
Place your bouquet in a bright but cool room, away from windows, radiators, or air conditioning units.
4. Use Flower Preservatives
Most Wineflowers bouquets include a preservative sachet. Alternatively, you can add a spoonful of sugar and a few drops of bleach to the water to delay wilting.
5. Mist the Petals
Lightly misting the flowers in the morning or evening helps keep the petals hydrated and vibrant.
