5 tips to successfully keep your tulips alive
By following a few simple guidelines, you can significantly extend the lifespan of your tulips and other cut flowers. Follow the tips below and you will see that your flower bouquet lasts much longer than you are used to.
Tips 1. This is how much water tulips should have in the vase
Tulips, like so many other flowers, prefer fresh and cold water. Fill the vase with tap water and make sure the water properly covers the stems.
Tips 2. How often should you change the water for tulips
For best results, change the water every three days and cut the stems about one centimeter at an angle. This helps the tulips absorb more water and keeps them healthy longer.
Tips 3. Think about the temperature! Tulips like cool places
Avoid placing the tulips near heat sources or direct sunlight. Tulips prefer cooler temperatures and will thrive better in a cooler part of your home.
Tip 4. Store tulips in the refrigerator
For extra durability, you can place the tulips in the fridge overnight or set them out in the conservatory if you have one. However, tulips do not survive in freezing temperatures, so be careful not to place the tulips in extreme cold.
Tips 5. Keep the tulip vase clean for maximum longevity
Clean your glass vase regularly to prevent bacterial growth. Use a mild dish soap and rinse thoroughly. A clean vase helps keep the flowers fresh longer.
