1. Water cutting method: This method is mainly to expand the incision surface at the bottom of the flower stem and increase the water absorption area. Cut the bottom of the flower stem neatly and cut it into an inclined plane; The water in the vase should be no more than 2/3 of the stem. This method is applicable to most flowers, especially peonies, carnations, narcissus, etc. After being placed for a period of time, impurities or sediment will be attached to the bottom of the flower stem, so it can also extend the flowering period by trimming 1-2 cm every two days.
2. Breaking method: the same principle as water cutting method, that is, breaking the bottom of the flower stem to increase the water absorption area of the stem. This method is applicable to lily, hydrangea, chrysanthemum, etc.
3. Hot water method: boil the water, let the bottom of the flower stem enter it for one second, take it out and put it in cold water; This method is suitable for herbaceous flowers.
4. Needle injection method: water flowers such as lotus and water lily are more likely to wither. If you want to keep the flowers for a long time, you can use injection method. The nutrient solution is injected into the flower stem through a needle tube to prolong the flowering period.
5. Beer method: beer can be used as a nutritional preservative to prolong the survival time of fresh flowers, because the ethanol in it has the function of disinfection and antisepsis. In addition, the sugar and other nutrients in it can provide more nutrients for fresh flowers. Therefore, adding an appropriate amount of beer to water or placing flowers in beer bottles with foam can prolong the flowering period.
There are many ways to keep fresh flowers, but there are always some differences between different kinds of fresh flowers. Friends who love flowers can choose the right method to be more effective.
