Maintenance Tips
Tips to keep your flowers fresh longer:
- Prepare your vase by washing it and filling it 2/3 full with fresh water.
- Add one of the preservative sachets that we send in the box of your flowers.
- Remove the wrapping from the flowers so they can breathe.
- Cut the stems diagonally or bevelled and repeat every time you change the water (ideally every 2-3 days) to keep the flowers hydrated.
- Place the flowers in the vase, making sure that the stems are completely submerged in the water.
- Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources; keep the vase in a cool place.
- If you no longer have packets of preservative, you can make your own homemade solution by mixing fresh water, juice of half a lemon, and a teaspoon of sugar. Shake vigorously and add the mixture to the water in the vase.
By following these maintenance tips, you will be able to enjoy your flowers for much longer.
PS: A trick in case the flowers have lasted so long that you don't have any preservative sachets left. Take a coffee-type glass, fill it with water, squeeze the juice of half a lemon and add a teaspoon of sugar, shake it vigorously and dilute the mixture in the vase with fresh water and cross out…. you already have your homemade nutrients.
