Classic Garden Charm

Indulge in a “Martha Stewart Summer” filled with garden-fresh blooms, effortless charm, and intentional living. Here, you’ll find floral care tips to maintain your beautiful flowers, plus some of our favorite arrangements to decorate your everyday spaces.

  1. Change the water often

To maintain a fresh bouquet or vase of flowers, the most important detail is their water supply. Changing the water every other day can keep the blooms looking fresh and will reduce the odds of not getting enough to drink. Cutting the flower stems at an angle will allow more water to be absorbed, which can be done as often as you change the water in the vase. 

  1. Use a tablespoon of sugar

Flower food is usually included in a bouquet you purchase from the store and will always be put in a vase from a florist. Though most people don’t have floral food on the ready, almost everyone has a tablespoon of sugar! After replacing the water, adding a small amount of simple sugar will give the flowers the kick they need. 

  1. Take out dead flowers

Flowers that have begun wilting or are molding at the stem will cause further problems for the blooms that are very much still alive. Simply remove the old and dying flowers because they can emit a toxin into the water that will kill the rest of the arrangement quickly. Different kinds of flowers have different expiration dates, so make sure to keep an eye out and change the water after doing so!

  1. Move them away from a window

Sunlight is necessary when growing in a field, but after they have been cut, they need a comfortable, room-temperature place to stand.
