How To Keep Your Roses Fresh


If you're like most girls, you probably received a bouquet of beautiful roses from your sweetie for Valentine's Day. Either that or you gifted some to yourself during Galentine's Day! We absolutely love how roses brighten up our rooms and have a beautiful fragrance in our homes. We were thinking…how can we make our roses stay like this? After all, roses aren't just meant to be admired for one day. So we did some research and we wanted to share with you these easy ways to keep them fresh for more than a couple of days:

1. When you cut the flowers at a slight angle be sure to cut them at about 2.5 cm (1 inch) from the bottom of each rose and submerge them into lukewarm water. If possible, try to cut the stems either in the morning or in the evening because roses tend to have more starch reserves during these times of the day.

2. Keep your flowers out of direct sunlight. Putting them in direct sunlight will cause them to wilt faster.

3. Avoid placing roses in an overly warm or dry area.

4. Clean the water that the flowers are placed in, every two days.

5. Avoid bacteria build up in the vase by placing a penny and aspirin inside the vase. Copper kills fungus that grows inside the vase and when the aspirin dissolves, it provides the water with higher levels of acid.
