Fresh Cut Flower Tips…

Display flowers in a cool spot – Most flowers prefer temperatures between (18 to 22 Degrees Celsius) and are best displayed away from direct sunlight, heating or cooling vents, directly under ceiling fans, or on top of televisions or radiators, which give off heat and can cause flowers to dehydrate. Avoid placing fresh flowers near ripening fruit, which releases tiny amounts of ethylene gas that can age them prematurely.

Change the water, and add additional fresh flower food – Make sure you clean the vase before refilling it with room-temperature water mixed with the proper amount of fresh flower food. Be sure no debris is floating in the water (such as leaves and stem parts) as this could promote the growth of bacteria which can shorten fresh cut flower’s life.

A packet of flower food is typically included with your fresh cut flowers, it is basically sugar that helps keep the bacteria count in the water low. An aspirin, (but not ibuprofen), works just as well. Aspirin will help to prolong the life of the flowers. Just be sure to cut about an inch off of the stem of the flowers each day.
