Top 7 Tips to Keep Your Fresh Flowers Last Longer at Home

Always use clean water in your vase and change it every 2 days. Dirty water can breed bacteria that shorten flower life. Adding flower food or a teaspoon of sugar can also nourish the blooms.

Fresh flowers bring joy, beauty, and a lovely fragrance into any home. At Radian Flower and Gift Shop, we pride ourselves on delivering fresh, vibrant flower bouquets that brighten your special moments. But once you receive your beautiful bouquet, how do you ensure your flowers stay fresh and last as long as possible? Here are the top 7 expert tips to help you enjoy your fresh flowers for days to come.

1. Trim the Stems Regularly

Cutting the stems at an angle every 2-3 days helps flowers absorb water better. Use sharp scissors or pruning shears and trim about 1 inch off the bottom. This simple step can significantly extend the life of your bouquet.

2. Use Clean, Fresh Water

Always use clean water in your vase and change it every 2 days. Dirty water can breed bacteria that shorten flower life. Adding flower food or a teaspoon of sugar can also nourish the blooms.

3. Remove Leaves Below the Waterline

Leaves submerged in water rot quickly and promote bacterial growth. Remove any leaves that fall below the waterline to keep your flowers healthy and vibrant.

4. Keep Flowers Away from Direct Sunlight and Heat

Place your flower bouquet in a cool spot away from direct sunlight, heaters, or drafts. Extreme temperatures can cause flowers to wilt faster.

5. Avoid Placing Flowers Near Fruits

Ripening fruits release ethylene gas, which can cause flowers to age prematurely. Keep your flowers away from fruit bowls to extend their freshness.

6. Mist Your Flowers

Lightly misting flowers with water daily can help maintain moisture, especially for delicate blooms like roses and orchids.

7. Use a Clean Vase

Before arranging your flowers, wash your vase thoroughly to remove any bacteria or residue from previous use. A clean vase helps keep your flowers fresh longer.
