How to care for fresh-cut flowers
The best flower delivery services come with advice on how to care for your flowers. This should include how best to prepare the bouquet and what to do once the flowers are in water. A sachet of plant food is also often included, but this can also be bought online. To prolong the life of your cut flowers follow these tips:
- Cut the stems of your flowers with garden scissors or sharp secateurs to ensure you don't crush them and prevent water and nutrient uptake.
- Cut to length at an angle, which increases the cut surface area and allows the stem to absorb more water. Leaves from the bottom half of the stem should be removed to prevent any rotting in the water.
- Always use a clean vase and check the water level every other day, topping up as needed.
- Every two or three days change the water and recut stems.
- Keep your arrangement looking fresh by removing any dead or dying flowers
- Try to place the flowers in a cooler spot away from radiators, fires and direct sunlight.
How to grow your own cut flowers
Whilst a bouquet arriving at your door is a real treat, there’s something so satisfying about being able to grow your own cut flowers. It’s also much cheaper and an eco-friendly way of having cut flowers.
You only need a few square meetings to have blooms for many months of the year! Just make sure you pick a site that has lots of sun, and shelter. Strong winds might damage your plants and means they’ll need watering more often.
When choosing which plants to grow for cut flowers, it’s best to grow a mix of annuals, half-hardy annuals and biennials for the longest flowering season.
