Tips for Longer Lasting Flowers

Make sure the vase or jar that you place your bouquet in is clean.

Trim stems at an angle, re-trimming every few days.

Change out the water in your vase/jar every 2-3 days. Using filtered water will also help keep your flowers fresh.

Keep your bouquet away from sunlight and/or ripe fruit. The cooler the space you keep your flowers in, the better!

When you notice a flower in your arrangement starting to wilt, droop or discolor, remove it.

I performed an experiment on my flowers last summer and noticed if I dropped a tablespoon or so of our honey in the water with my flowers they lasted several days longer than ones with plain water.
