Flower Care Guide
A little flower care goes a long way, and the best habits are simple enough to work into everyday routines.
Fresh flowers last longest when the stems stay hydrated, the water stays clean, and the bouquet is kept away from direct heat and harsh sun.
Whether you received a wrapped bouquet, a vase arrangement, roses, or mixed seasonal flowers, the fundamentals stay reassuringly straightforward.
What This Means in Practice
Fresh cut stems
Trim the stems on an angle before placing flowers in water and again every few days if needed.
Clean water matters
Refresh the water regularly and rinse the vase when the water starts to cloud.
Cool placement helps
Keep flowers away from heat sources, sunny windows, and drafty spots that speed up aging.
Common Questions
How often should I change the water?
Every couple of days is a strong routine, or sooner if the water looks cloudy.
Should I remove leaves below the water line?
Yes. Leaves in the water can shorten vase life by encouraging bacteria.
Do all flowers last the same amount of time?
No. Some stems naturally fade sooner than others in a mixed bouquet.
