Flowers bring beauty and freshness to any space, but to keep them looking their best, proper care is essential. At Uboxtony, we want your floral arrangements to last as long as possible, and we’re here to share some simple tips to ensure your flowers stay vibrant and fresh for days.
1. Trim the Stems
Before placing your flowers in water, cut about one inch off the stems at a 45-degree angle. This helps the flowers absorb water more effectively. Be sure to trim the stems every two days to prevent them from becoming clogged with sap.
2. Change the Water Regularly
Stagnant water can lead to bacterial growth, which shortens the lifespan of your flowers. Change the water every 2-3 days, and make sure to clean the vase thoroughly before refilling it with fresh water. Adding flower food (which Uboxtony includes with your arrangement) will also help nourish the blooms.
3. Keep Flowers in a Cool Spot
Flowers thrive in cooler environments, so avoid placing them in direct sunlight, near heating vents, or on top of appliances. A temperature between 18-22°C (65-72°F) is ideal for most flowers.
4. Remove Wilted Blooms
As flowers start to wilt, remove them from the arrangement to prevent them from affecting the surrounding flowers. This will also help keep the bouquet looking fresh.
By following these simple tips, you can enjoy your beautiful Uboxtony floral arrangements for longer. For more floral care advice or to order your next bouquet, visit https://uboxtony.com/blogs.html.
