Key Flower Care Tips By Ohana Fine Flowers

Trim The Stems

We cannot emphasise the importance of proper stem trimming enough when it comes to flower care. Giving your flowers the best start is crucial by using sharp scissors or a knife to make a clean, angled cut. This will create a larger surface area for water absorption, ensuring that your flowers receive the vital nutrients they need to thrive. As you trim, be sure to remove any leaves that will be submerged below the waterline, as they can cause bacterial growth and reduce the life span of your beloved blossoms.

Remove Wilted Flowers

A very important flower care tip is to understand the significance of removing wilted flowers from your arrangement. Not only does this help to maintain its aesthetic appeal, but it also plays a critical role in ensuring the longevity of your blooms. As flowers begin to wilt, they release ethylene gas, which can cause other flowers in the arrangement to wilt at an accelerated rate. To preserve the natural beauty of your flowers, it's important to promptly remove any that have passed their prime. This small act of love and care for your flowers will not only prolong their lifespan but will also enhance the overall beauty and vibrancy of your arrangement.

Keep Away From Direct Sunlight And Heat

Our love and admiration for flowers are rooted in their natural beauty and grace. To preserve their radiance, it's essential to ensure they're stored in the best possible conditions. Flowers require a cool, shaded environment to maintain their freshness, and this involves keeping them away from harsh direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Exposure to heat and drafts can cause dehydration and accelerate the ageing process, leading to wilting and premature death. By keeping your flowers in a protective and nurturing environment, you can help them reach their full potential and retain their stunning beauty for as long as possible.

Change The Water Regularly

Another essential flower care top is to ensure that the flowers maintain their vitality and vibrancy. This involves changing the water in the vase every two to three days and washing the container thoroughly with soap and water to eliminate any harmful bacteria. By nurturing your flowers in a hygienic environment, you are helping to sustain their natural beauty and promoting their longevity. It's important to remember that flowers, like any living organism, require attentive care and maintenance to reach their full potential.

Choose The Right Vase

We can’t stress enough the importance of selecting the right vase to complement your floral arrangements. Choosing the appropriate size and shape of the vase can greatly impact the longevity and aesthetic appeal of your flowers. A vase that is too small can cause the flowers to become overcrowded and lead to premature wilting, while a vase that is too large can leave the arrangement looking sparse and underwhelming. It's important to show your love and appreciation for these natural wonders by providing them with the perfect vessel to showcase their beauty.
