Cultivating flowers is a hobby full of fun and an indispensable part of many people's lives. How to make flowers bloom for a long time in a vase is a problem that troubles many flower lovers. Let's reveal the maintenance methods of flower materials to keep your flowers always beautiful.

Selection and cleaning of flower materials

1. Choose fresh flower materials: Fresh flower materials are the key to keeping flowers blooming for a long time. When buying flower materials, choose fresh flowers with full petals and no diseases and pests.

2. Clean the flower materials: Soak the flowers in light salt water for about 10 minutes to remove the dust and impurities on the surface of the flowers, which also helps to extend the freshness of the flowers.

Preparation of vase and water

1. Choose a suitable vase: The material, color, and shape of the vase will affect the ornamental effect of the flowers. It is recommended to choose a transparent or light-colored vase to better showcase the beauty of the flowers.

2. Clean the vase: Before inserting flowers, make sure the inside and outside of the vase are clean to prevent the growth of bacteria.

3. Water quality selection: Use pure fresh water and avoid using hard water or tap water containing more chlorine. The calcium and magnesium ions in hard water will react with the organic substances in the flower materials, causing the flowers to wilt prematurely.

Trimming and arrangement techniques of flower materials

1. Trim the flower materials: Cut the roots of the flowers diagonally at a 45-degree angle to increase the water absorption area and improve the preservation effect of the flowers.

2. Flower arrangement skills: Arrange the flowers according to the层次, color, and shape to make the flowers look attractive and form a beautiful visual effect in the vase.

Maintenance methods of flower materials

1. Avoid direct sunlight: Direct sunlight will accelerate the withering of flowers. The vase should be placed in a ventilated and cool place.

2. Maintain proper temperature: Flowers have different preservation effects at different temperatures. Generally speaking, a temperature of 15-25℃ is most suitable for flower growth.

3. Change water regularly: Change the water every 2-3 days to keep the water clean and prevent the growth of bacteria.

4. Use preservatives: There are many flower preservatives on the market, such as Flower Treasure, Flower Spirit, etc., which can extend the freshness period of flowers.

5. Avoid placing fruits: The ethylene gas released by fruits will accelerate the withering of flowers. Fruits and flowers should be placed separately.

Mastering the maintenance methods of flower materials can make your flowers bloom for a long time in a vase. In daily life, pay more attention to the growth needs of flower materials, take good care of them, and believe you can raise beautiful flowers. Let's enjoy the fun of cultivating flowers together!
