You gave a bouquet of roses, and you would like to preserve its beauty, freshness, really long? On the other hand you are going to buy a bouquet of roses and wish to choose those flowers that “stand”, at least, a week? Then this article was written especially for you, because today we will talk about how to order flowers and how to care for them to the beauty of the bouquet did not fade as long as possible.
the First thing you should know within our topic today is – among the different varieties of roses have different freshness, durability (of course, we mean cut flowers). In order not to confuse you with unnecessary terms, names of specific varieties, given for you a simple rule that will help to identify the most resistant roses. So, when selecting bouquets to order, pay attention to color and soft Lepestki. Least “downtime” unfortunately, white roses with delicate soft Lepestki. Therefore, the deeper the rose color and the more dense, strong, elastic Lepestki they have, the better.
Yes, indeed, the quality of roses is very important for the longevity of cut flowers. However, equally important is the fact exactly how you will manage with the received a bouquet of roses. If you just immediately put the composition into the water, recruited straight from the tap, and you should not rely on the flowers to preserve the original appearance for more than a few days. But if it is to make a cut, take the right water… However, let´s talk about all this in order.
so the first thing you should do after receiving a gift of flowers (if you decide to buy a bouquet of roses for the other person, not hurt to remember these rules and tell them “lucky”), – plunge the stems under the water and make a sharp knife oblique cut. By the way, can´t hurt a bit and split the stalk with a knife in place of the cut. Why make all these manipulations? Why you should run them under water? We´ll see!
why do you think flowers are dying? The fact is that they no longer receive the necessary nutrition from the roots. In particular, it relates to water. And if we are the roses this diet will provide, then they will live much longer.
It is in order that the flowers could “drink” water, they need a split stem, and an oblique cut. Have a diagonal cut larger than direct and, therefore, the stem of the flower can absorb more moisture. Similarly situation is with split stem. As to why, and cut, and splitting to do under water, it is necessary that the channels through which the rose will absorb the moisture did not clog the air tubes.
You decide to order flowers for someone else or received a bouquet as a gift… You made the cut with a sharp knife, split the stem of flowers under the water… now what? What to do next?
Now you need to put the flowers in a vase. By the way, it is curious that today a variety of vases often offers to buy flower delivery. Kiev and its clients accept this offer on hurrah, especially when ordering bouquets at the office with the beautiful glass containers can be not too successfully.
the Water in the vase where you put the roses should be at least defended, as a high – boiled. And yet, whatever water you choose, you need to dissolve it in a half tablet of aspirin. There is another, much more effective recipe that introduced us to the flower delivery (Kiev and florists are actively using this trick in my work). Vase for roses is to fill a liter of boiled, cooled water with dissolved 40 grams of sugar and 150 millilitres of citric acid. To change the solution, by the way, you will be every 4 days.
