Fresh flowers need plenty of water to stay vibrant. As soon as you bring your bouquet home, place it in a clean vase filled with room-temperature water. Be sure to change the water every two days to keep it fresh and prevent bacteria from forming, which can shorten the life of your flowers.

Cut the stems at a 45-degree angle before placing the flowers in water. This helps improve water absorption. Re-trim the stems every couple of days to ensure they continue to take in water efficiently, keeping your flowers looking fresh longer.

To extend the life of your flowers, place them in a cool spot away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts. High temperatures can cause flowers to wilt more quickly, so keep them in a location with stable, cool temperatures.

As some flowers begin to wilt, remove them from the arrangement to prevent them from affecting the other blooms. This helps maintain the health and appearance of the remaining flowers, ensuring your bouquet stays beautiful for as long as possible.
