Flower Care
Transfer to a vase with fresh cold water as soon as possible — box arrangements do not hold water for long. Cut all stems at an angle before placing in water. Change the water every two days and recut stems each time. Roses will last five to seven days; baby's breath will outlast them. Keep away from direct sunlight, heat, and ripening fruit.
Keep Your Flowers Fresh Longer
Your beautiful Northampton flower delivery deserves expert care. Follow our local florist's proven tips to enjoy vibrant blooms for up to two weeks.
Immediate Care (First Hour)
Unpack promptly – Remove your flowers from packaging within 1 hour of delivery to prevent overheating.
Trim stems at an angle – Cut 2-3cm off each stem at a 45° angle using sharp scissors or secateurs. This increases water absorption.
Remove lower leaves – Strip any foliage that would sit below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth.
Use clean water – Fill your vase with fresh, cool tap water. Add the flower food sachet provided with your bouquet.
Daily Maintenance
Change water every 2 days – Fresh water prevents bacteria that shorten flower life. Rinse the vase thoroughly.
Re-cut stems – Trim another 1cm off stems each time you change the water.
Remove wilted blooms – Take out any dying flowers to keep the arrangement looking fresh and prevent bacteria spread.
Top up water daily – Flowers drink a lot, especially in the first few days.
Ideal Placement
Cool location – Keep flowers away from direct sunlight, radiators, and heating vents. Cooler temperatures (16-18°C) extend vase life.
Avoid fruit bowls – Ripening fruit releases ethylene gas which causes flowers to age faster.
Skip draughty spots – Avoid windowsills and doorways where temperature fluctuates.
Special Flower Types
Roses – Remove guard petals (outer petals) if damaged. Roses can last 7-12 days with proper care.
Lilies – Remove orange pollen stamens to prevent staining and extend bloom life. Lilies can last up to 2 weeks.
Tulips – These continue growing in the vase. Use less water (5-7cm) and keep very cool.
Sunflowers – Change water frequently as stems can become slimy. These bold blooms last 7-10 days.
Chrysanthemums – Hardy flowers that can last 2-3 weeks. Break stems rather than cutting for best results.
Troubleshooting
Drooping heads? Re-cut stems and place in deep, cool water for 2 hours to revive.
Cloudy water? Sign of bacteria. Change immediately and clean vase with diluted bleach.
Petals browning? Remove affected flowers and ensure vase isn't in direct heat or sunlight.
Expert Tip from Your Local Northampton Florist
Add a drop of bleach or vodka to your vase water (1 teaspoon per litre) as a natural antibacterial. This simple trick can add 3-4 extra days to your flower's vase life. At Blossom Surprise, we've been caring for Northampton's flowers since day one – these techniques really work!
