There are many reasons to receive a bouquet as a gift, but there are few effective ways to help prolong the “life” of flowers.
Aspirin and sugar are old tricks that don't work as well as this equally simple method.
Flowers will last 2 times longer
Before placing the flowers in a vase, you need to scald the cuts with boiling water and then remove the darkened part.
Experts advise doing this trick from time to time. About once every 3-4 days. This will help to "reanimate" a bouquet that is not the first freshness.
This is enough for the flowers to remain attractive at least twice as long.
In addition, the water should be changed every day. The liquid should be filtered. There should be no fruits near the bouquet. They emit ethylene, which causes the buds to fade faster.
This way, your favorite flowers will retain their attractive appearance without sugar, aspirin, honey, and other folk remedies.
