Flower Care Guide


Fresh flowers bring beauty, emotion, and elegance into any space. To help your bouquet stay vibrant for as long as possible, we’ve prepared a simple care guide tailored for our customers. These tips will help your flowers remain fresh and radiant after delivery.

1. Choose the Right Water

  • Clean water is essential for maintaining the freshness of your bouquet.
  • Use room-temperature water for most flowers.
  • For delicate blooms like tulips or hydrangeas, cooler water may help keep them firm.
  • Change the water every 1–2 days, rinsing the vase each time to prevent bacteria growth.

2. Use the Provided Flower Food

Every bouquet from Bouquet Boutique comes with a floral nutrient sachet.
Add it to the water to help keep your flowers hydrated and fresh for longer.
This blend is specially formulated to nourish the stems and keep the water clean.

3. Choose the Best Spot for Your Bouquet

Proper placement can significantly extend the life of your flowers:

  • Keep them away from direct sunlight, radiators, and heating appliances.
  • Avoid cold drafts or placing the bouquet near an open window.
  • Do not place flowers next to fruits, as they release ethylene gas that speeds up wilting.

4. How to Revive Flowers That Are Starting to Fade

If your bouquet begins to lose some of its freshness, try the following:

  • Place the stems into slightly warm water for 10–15 minutes.
  • For roses, a gentle warm-water rinse followed by cool water can help bring back their firmness.
  • For hydrangeas, full-head immersion in cool water is the most effective method.

6. Creative Ways to Preserve Your Bouquet

Even as the flowers reach the end of their natural life, you can still enjoy their beauty:

  • Air-dry blooms to create a long-lasting decorative arrangement.
  • Use dried petals for home décor or handmade sachets.

Special Care for Different Flowers

  • Roses


    Keep them in a cool area and refresh the water regularly.

  • Column

    Store them in cool water.


    If they begin to lean, wrap the stems loosely in paper and leave them in water for a few hours.

  • Hydrangeas

    Hydrangeas need more water than other flowers. Always fill the vase to the top so the stems are fully immersed.


    Lightly mist the flower heads daily — hydrangeas absorb moisture not only through the stems but also through their petals.


    If the bloom begins to soften or wilt, submerge the entire flower head in cool water for 20–30 minutes. This method often restores the flower to its original freshness.
