Bouquets often come with a sachet of conditioner, along with instructions on how to prolong their freshness. If you received flowers without conditioner, don’t worry. My mother-in-law shared a recipe for keeping them in top condition. It works for your own garden flowers, too.
How to make flowers last longer in a vase? A home remedy to make a bouquet pleasing to the eye
Flowers like sterile conditions and an environment free of bacteria. It is not only the quality of water and its quantity that matters, but also the additives that we add to it. My mother-in-law told me a special additive that makes her bouquets stay intact for a long time. Just use toilet cleaning detergent. This will help prevent the water from clouding, inhibit the growth of bacteria, and the glass vase will remain sparkling clean. Change it every 3 days and add more bleach and sugar.
- Fill the vase with 2 liters of fresh cold water
- Add 1 teaspoon of sugar.
- Add half a teaspoon of detergent.
What can you use hairspray for? A simple trick for falling leaves and flowers
In the case of flowers or leaves that tend to fall, hairspray is the panacea for this problem. Just quickly spray it on the underside of the petals. This will prevent them from falling and can make them look fresh for a longer time. What’s more, the color will be even more intense, and dust will not settle as much. You can also spray compositions of dry flowers or leaves. If you’d like, please vote in our poll below.
