Because beautiful moments deserve to stay a little longer.
There’s something magical about receiving a bouquet—the colors, the scent, the thought behind it. But as much as we love fresh flowers, watching them wilt too soon can be a little heartbreaking.
At Florist Nepal, we believe your bouquet should stay fresh and beautiful for as long as possible. So here are our top 5 easy tips to help your flowers live their best (and longest) life.
✂️ 1. Give the Stems a Fresh Cut
Before placing your bouquet in a vase, trim about 1–2 cm off each stem at a 45° angle. This small step opens up the stems to drink more water. Re-trim every couple of days to keep the water flowing and the blooms glowing.
🧼 2. Clean Vase, Clean Water
Your flowers deserve a fresh home.
Start with a clean vase and fill it with room-temperature water. Change the water every two days, and make sure no leaves are submerged—wet leaves can cause bacteria that make flowers wilt faster.
🥄 3. Feed Your Flowers
If your bouquet comes with flower food—use it! It gives the flowers the nutrients they need to thrive.
Don’t have any? Mix your own using 1 teaspoon of sugar, a few drops of lemon juice, and a splash of white vinegar. This combo helps fight bacteria and gives your blooms a sweet boost.
🌥️ 4. Keep Them Cool & Comfortable
Flowers love cool, cozy spots.
Avoid placing your bouquet in direct sunlight, near heaters, or under fans. And keep them away from fruits like apples or bananas—those release gases that make flowers age faster. Think gentle shade, calm corners, and no drama!
🌙 5. Give Them Beauty Sleep (Bonus Tip!)
Want to go the extra mile? Let your bouquet rest in the fridge overnight. Just like florists do! The cooler temperature helps slow down wilting and keeps your flowers perky for longer.
🌼 Final Petal of Advice
With just a little care, your bouquet can stay fresh and full of life for 7 days or more. And every extra day it blooms is another chance to smile, remember, and feel something special.
Because flowers aren’t just a gift. They’re a feeling.
And at Florist Nepal, we’re here to help that feeling last as long as it can. 💖
