There’s nothing quite like the joy of bringing home a fresh bouquet from your local Dawson Creek flower shop. To keep those beautiful blooms looking their best for as long as possible, here are a few simple care tips to follow:
🌿 Keep Them Cool & Comfy
Place your flowers away from direct sunlight. Bright sun may look lovely, but it actually speeds up the aging process (known as senescence), which shortens vase life. A cool, shaded spot will keep your flowers fresher for longer.
💧 Change the Water Regularly
Every couple of days, give your bouquet fresh water. This helps eliminate harmful bacteria that can build up and cause unpleasant odors—and worse, unhappy blooms.
✂️ Give Stems a Fresh Cut
Whenever possible, cut the stems back at an angle before placing them in a vase. Cutting at an angle increases the surface area, allowing the stems to drink up more water—leading to longer-lasting, perkier flowers.
By following these easy steps, you’re not only extending the life of your bouquet—you’re honoring the time, care, and love that went into growing it. Our flowers are farm-fresh and full of life, and with just a little TLC, they’ll continue to brighten your space for days to come.
