Flower Care Alstroemerias:

Alstroemerias, also known as Peruvian lilies, are vibrant, long-lasting flowers that can brighten any bouquet. To keep your fresh-cut alstroemerias looking beautiful for as long as possible, follow these simple care instructions.

By following these simple steps, your fresh-cut alstroemerias will stay vibrant and beautiful, bringing a pop of color and elegance to any room for days or even weeks.

1. Trim the Stems

• Cut at an Angle: Using sharp, clean scissors or a floral knife, trim about 1-2 inches off the stems at a 45-degree angle. This helps increase the surface area for water absorption. Make sure to remove any rubber bands or plastic sleeves/paper around the bunches.
• Underwater Cutting: If possible, cut the stems underwater or immediately place them in water to prevent air from entering the stems, which can block hydration.

2. Place in Fresh Water

• Use Clean, Lukewarm Water: Fill a clean vase with lukewarm water (not hot or cold). This helps the stems absorb water more efficiently.
• Add Flower Food: If you have a flower food packet, mix it into the water according to the instructions. Flower food provides essential nutrients and helps prevent bacterial growth, which can extend the life of your flowers.

3. Remove Excess Foliage

• Clean the Stems: Remove any leaves that will be submerged in the water to reduce the chance of bacteria growth. This helps keep the water clear and fresh for longer.

4. Change the Water Regularly

• Fresh Water Every 2 Days: Alstroemerias drink a lot of water, so change the water every 2 days to keep the flowers hydrated and prevent bacterial buildup. When changing the water, be sure to trim the stems slightly to maintain good water uptake.

5. Avoid Direct Sunlight and Heat

• Keep in a Cool Spot: Place your bouquet of alstroemerias in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight, heat sources, or drafts. Too much heat can cause the flowers to wilt prematurely.

6. Prune Dead Blooms

• Remove Faded Flowers: As the individual flowers begin to wilt, remove them from the bouquet to keep the arrangement looking fresh. Alstroemerias produce multiple blooms on each stem, so removing dead flowers will help prolong the life of the remaining buds.

7. Provide Support for Tall Stems

• Consider Support: If your alstroemerias have tall or heavy stems, you may want to provide extra support by gently tying them to a decorative stake or placing them in a stable vase to avoid any bending or breakage.

8. Keep Away from Fruit

• Avoid Ethylene Gas: Keep your alstroemerias away from ripening fruit, as fruits release ethylene gas, which can cause flowers to age prematurely.

9. Re-cut the Stems if Needed

• If the flowers begin to droop or wilt prematurely, re-cut the stems by about 1 inch and place them back into fresh water. This can help improve water absorption and revive the flowers.
