Cut Flowers

The lifespan of cut flowers can vary widely depending on the species and care provided. Generally, most cut flowers last from five to 14 days. Flowers like lilies and roses tend to have a longer vase life compared to delicate blooms like daisies.

Store cut flowers in a cool, dark place if you cannot display them immediately. Keep them in water and avoid exposing them to heat or drafts.

While you can use regular tap water, adding floral preservatives can significantly extend the life of your cut flowers by providing nutrients and inhibiting bacterial growth.

Wilting can result from several factors, including insufficient water, blocked stems, or exposure to heat. Ensure that the water is clean, stems are trimmed, and flowers are kept in a cool environment.

Cut flowers do not require sunlight and can actually wilt faster when exposed to direct sunlight. Keep them in a cool, shaded area to prolong their freshness.
