Market Bouquets 8-18-20

For the longest vase life:

CUT: Trim the bottom 1/4” off each stem at an angle. This gives blooms a little more surface area to drink and keeps them from sitting on the bottom of the vase. 

WATER: Flowers are thirsty! Fill your vase with cold tap water and get those babies in ASAP. Changing the water daily will give you extra days of vase life. 

EXTRAS: 

-If you’re bringing your bouquet or arrangement to another location, make ‘er quick! Think of your flowers as a tub of ice cream. That’s about how long you’d want to leave your beauties sitting in the car. 

-Place your flowers out of direct sunlight. Sunshine and heat are things of the past for them now that they are cut. 

-Some flowers last for several days and some can last for a couple weeks! As certain flowers fade, pull them out and continue to enjoy the rest of the bunch.
