How to extend the life of flower bouquets: 3 effective tips
Don't know how to extend the life of bouquets? SSPDaily shared practical tips on how to preserve the beauty of flowers even longer.
Trimming the stems
Remember that the stems of plants should be cut at an angle, which will allow the flowers to absorb more water and nutrients, while preventing them from wilting. Also, remove leaves that are submerged in water to reduce bacterial growth while keeping the water clean.
Change the water
To prolong the life of a bouquet of flowers, you need to change the water in the vase regularly. Stagnant water can become a breeding ground for bacteria, leading to premature wilting of plants. If you change the water every 2 days and keep the vase clean, you can extend the life of the bouquet.
Sugar and vinegar
Add a small amount of sugar and vinegar to the water. Sugar provides the flowers with nutrients, and vinegar helps fight bacteria. This simple trick can significantly prolong the freshness and beauty of a bouquet.
