Making Your Flowers Last

1. ​Start with a vase clean enough to drink from.

2. Use the flower food, following the instructions on the packet.

3. Change the water every other day and wash out the vase each time you do.

4. Trim the stems every time you change the water.

5. Keep out of direct sunlight, away from drafts, and away from ripening fruit (which releases ethylene gas and causes the flowers to wilt prematurely). ​

Dried Flower Care

1. Avoid water and humidity.

2. Keep out of direct sunlight and away from drafts. 

3. To store: Pack away in a cardboard box and store at room temperature. Moths LOVE dried flowers, so place a piece of cedar inside the box to keep them away.
