Keeping your Mother's Day bouquet fresher for longer

Banish droopy bouquets this year. We’ve put together our top tips so mum can enjoy her flowers for longer:

Trim the stems (about 3 to 5cm) at an angle to help the flowers absorb more water.
Prune any outer guard petals that look a little dry or discoloured - these were left to keep the flowers protected on their journey.
Don’t panic if the flowers aren’t in bloom yet! They arrive in bud and should blossom within 24-48 hours.
Opt for a vase that’s around 1/3 of the height of the stems - feel free to give them a little trim so that they fit properly in the vase. The neck should be narrow enough to provide the stems with support, but not so narrow that it squashes the stems.
Wash the vase thoroughly before use to prevent any bacteria build-up.
Place the flowers in natural (but not direct) sunlight and keep away from radiators and any fruit or vegetables.
Replace the water every 2-3 days to prevent drying or wilting.
