How to Care for Your Galentine’s Day Flowers

Receiving a beautiful bouquet or a charming potted plant is always a delight, especially on Galentine’s Day. But to keep these floral gifts fresh and vibrant, proper care is essential. Here are some simple tips to help your Gal Pal enjoy her flowers for as long as possible:

For Fresh Bouquets

1. Trim the Stems: Cut about an inch off the stems at a 45-degree angle. This improves water absorption.
2. Choose the Right Vase: Use a clean vase that’s appropriately sized for the bouquet.
3. Fresh Water is Key: Change the water every two days to prevent bacteria growth.
4. Keep Them Cool: Place the bouquet away from direct sunlight, heaters, or drafts.
5. Remove Wilted Flowers: Taking out wilted or dead flowers helps the remaining ones last longer.

Our blog on how to take care of fresh flowers provides more detailed insights for those interested in extending the life of their bouquets.

For Potted Plants

1. Understand the Plant’s Needs: Each plant has specific light, water, and temperature requirements.
2. Water Wisely: Overwatering is a common mistake. Ensure the pot has drainage, and water only when necessary.
3. Location Matters: Place the plant in a spot that gets the right amount of light and isn’t too drafty or hot.
