Practical advice for customers on extending the life of their fresh flower arrangements at home.
There’s nothing quite like receiving a fresh bouquet — the scent, the color, the instant mood boost. At Rizz Blooms, we want your flowers to bring beauty into your space for as long as possible.
Here are 5 expert tips to help your blooms stay vibrant and happy well beyond day one:
✂️ 1. Trim the Stems Right Away
Why: Freshly cut stems absorb water better.
How: Use clean, sharp scissors or garden shears to trim about an inch off the stems at a 45-degree angle. This increases surface area and helps the flowers drink more water.
💡 Bonus Tip: Re-trim every few days to keep them refreshed!
🚰 2. Use Clean Water (And a Clean Vase!)
Why: Dirty water breeds bacteria, which causes wilting.
How: Always start with a clean vase and fill it with room temperature water. Add the flower food packet we include — it feeds your blooms and helps prevent bacterial growth.
🌸 Change the water every 2 days for best results.
🪟 3. Keep Them Cool
Why: Flowers last longer in cool environments.
How: Place your bouquet away from direct sunlight, heaters, or drafts. Warm temperatures can make them fade fast.
✨ Best spots: a cool kitchen counter, bedside table, or shaded dining area.
🍌 4. Keep Them Away From Ripening Fruit
Why: Ripening fruit releases ethylene gas, which causes flowers to age prematurely.
How: Avoid placing your arrangement near bananas, apples, or avocados — especially in enclosed areas like the fridge.
🥀 5. Remove Wilting Stems
Why: One wilting bloom can spread bacteria and speed up the decay of the entire arrangement.
How: As soon as a flower starts to fade, remove it gently to protect the rest of the bouquet.
💐 Keep the Magic Going
With just a little care, your Rizz Blooms bouquet can stay beautiful for 7–10 days or more. Think of it as a mini act of self-care — fresh flowers, fresh energy, fresh mindset.
