How to keep your flowers fresh longer

A few small habits can add days to your bouquet. Here's what we tell every customer.

1. Start with a clean vase

Bacteria shorten a bouquet’s life. Wash your vase with warm, soapy water before arranging.
2. Trim stems at an angle

Cut about an inch off each stem at a 45° angle every couple of days so they can drink freely.
3. Change the water often

Fresh, cool water every 1–2 days makes a big difference. Add the flower food we include.
4. Keep them cool

Place your arrangement away from direct sun, heat vents, and ripening fruit (which releases ethylene).
5. Remove spent blooms

Pinch off any wilting flowers or submerged leaves to keep the rest looking fresh.
