1. Fresh Water is Key:
Change the water in your vase every 2-3 days to keep your flowers hydrated and fresh.
2. Trim with Care:
Give your flowers an angled cut when refreshing the water. This helps them absorb water more efficiently.
3. Keep it Clean:
Disinfect your vase every time you change the water to prevent bacteria from harming your blooms.
4. Find the Perfect Spot:
Place your bouquet in a cool area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. This will help your flowers stay vibrant longer.
5. Love Your Flowers:
No matter which flowers or colors you choose, a little care and attention go a long way. Maintain them with love, and they’ll bring joy for days to come!
