Here, Diane Nittke, Founder of Ellermann Flower Boutique & Event Atelier, imparts some expert advice on how to care for your blooms and blossoms.
For Floral Arrangements:
Once you receive your bouquet or fresh flowers, simply take them out of the packaging and place them in fresh water.
Keep them in a cool place, away from direct sunlight. This way, they would last much longer!
From time to time, you want to cut 2-3cm off each stem using a clean sharp knife or scissors, always cut them with a diagonal angle so the stems can drink more water by increasing the area of the surface.
