Sunflower Bouquet Care Guide

To keep your sunflower bouquet fresh for longer, follow these steps:

1. Cut the stems diagonally: cut at a 45-degree angle and place in a wide-mouthed vase — sunflowers are large and heavy flowers, so a wide vase is necessary.
2. Change the water daily: Use clean, room-temperature water. Adding a teaspoon of sugar and a few drops of lemon to the water can prolong its lifespan.
3. Remove the lower leaves: Remove any leaves below the water level — otherwise, bacteria will multiply.
4. Place it in the correct location: Put it in a cool place, bright but out of direct sunlight. Keep it away from the fruit bowl (ethylene gas will wilt it).
5. With proper care, it stays fresh for 7-10 days.
