Make your flowers last longer
Avoid fruits
Don’t place your flowers next to the fruit basket at home, and certainly not next to bananas. Fruit releases ethylene gas during the ripening process, which means that the flowering process of flowers is accelerated. And that’s exactly what we don’t want!
Remove wilted flowers
Take a look at your flowers every day. Do you see a wilted flower? Remove it immediately, to prevent bacterias from spreading onto the other flowers.
Change the water
Change the water in the vase after a week or so. And while you’re at it, cut one cm diagonally from the stems too. This way, they can absorb more water again and will last longer.
Pour them some carbonated water
Carbonated water could give flowers that are about to wilt a little boost. It’s worth the try!
