Here are our top 7 tips to help your flowers last longer and look their absolute best for your event and beyond!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-24078 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/bouquet3.jpeg\" alt=\"white rose flower bouquet\" width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/bouquet3.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/bouquet3-1280x1707.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/bouquet3-980x1307.jpeg 980w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/bouquet3-480x640.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1536px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>1. Time is money &#8211; get the flowers in water ASAP<\/h2>\n<p>As soon as the flowers arrive, hydration is key. Because they&#8217;ve spent a day out of water, it&#8217;s imperative to get them hydrated as soon as possible. We recommend signing up for FedEx delivery manager so you can track your package and get updated upon arrival. Unpack the flowers immediately and place the stems in clean, room-temperature water.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Cut stems with a clean floral scissor at an angle<\/h2>\n<p>Use clean, sharp floral scissors or pruners to trim the ends of each stem at a 45-degree angle. This allows the flowers to absorb maximum water and helps prevent the stems from sitting flat at the bottom of the bucket.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Remove all foliage below the waterline<\/h2>\n<p>Leaves submerged in water will rot quickly and encourage bacteria to grow, which can shorten the life of your flowers. Strip all foliage that would fall below the waterline to keep things fresh and clean. Even loose foliage that is in danger of breaking or falling off the stem should be removed, as well as delicate or soft foliage.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-26525 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Classic-White-DIY-Tutorials-3x4-10.jpg\" alt=\"pouring water into a vase\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Classic-White-DIY-Tutorials-3x4-10.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Classic-White-DIY-Tutorials-3x4-10-480x640.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 750px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>4. Change out water daily<\/h2>\n<p>Fresh water is crucial for healthy blooms. Make it a habit to change the water every day, clean the bucket or vase too if it seems like the water is murky or not fresh. This simple step goes a long way in extending vase life.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Store in a cool, dry place<\/h2>\n<p>Until you are ready to use the flowers, store them in a cool, shaded area. Basements or garages are ideal. You want to avoid direct sunlight and drafts, which can cause flowers to wilt faster.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Give your blooms space to breathe<\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t overcrowd your buckets. Flowers need space for air to circulate around each stem. Overcrowding can lead to bruising especially on delicate blooms such as larkspur, stock, ranunculus, delphinium, and lisianthus. Let your flowers spread out so they can shine bright and last long!<\/p>\n<h2>7. Use Crowning Glory<\/h2>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/wholesale-flower-food\/floralife-clear-crowning-glory-solution-32oz_9903\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">professional floral spray<\/a> is a game changer. It seals in moisture and provides a protective layer to prevent dehydration. It&#8217;s used on arrangements &amp; bouquets as a finishing touch to lock in freshness. It&#8217;s a florists best friend and we can&#8217;t recommend Crowning Glory enough!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-26614 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/beautiful-colorful-flowers-in-flower-shop-2025-01-10-20-38-25-utc-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"flowers in buckets\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/beautiful-colorful-flowers-in-flower-shop-2025-01-10-20-38-25-utc-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/beautiful-colorful-flowers-in-flower-shop-2025-01-10-20-38-25-utc-1280x1920.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/beautiful-colorful-flowers-in-flower-shop-2025-01-10-20-38-25-utc-980x1470.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/beautiful-colorful-flowers-in-flower-shop-2025-01-10-20-38-25-utc-480x720.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1920px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you&#8217;re prepping blooms for a DIY wedding, baby shower, or event, the goal is always the same &#8211; keep the flowers looking fresh for as long as possible!
