Flower Care Delphinium:

Delphiniums are stunning flowers that bring a bold, vertical element to floral arrangements with their tall, spiky blooms in shades of blue, purple, pink, or white. While delphiniums are relatively easy to care for, they do require specific attention to ensure they stay fresh and vibrant. Here are some essential care tips for cut delphinium flowers.

By following these care tips, your delphinium flowers should last longer in your arrangements, maintaining their beauty and elegance for several days to a week.

1. Trim the Stems

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

2. Remove Foliage Below Waterline

• Gently remove any leaves or foliage that will be submerged in the water. This helps prevent bacterial growth and keeps the water clean, which will extend the life of your flowers.

3. Place in Fresh Water

• Use a Clean Vase: Fill a clean vase with lukewarm water (not too hot or cold), as warm water helps the flowers hydrate more efficiently.
• Add Flower Food: If you have flower food, mix it into the water as instructed. Flower food provides essential nutrients and helps prevent bacterial growth. If you dont have flower food, just plain water will do the trick.

4. Keep the Water Fresh

• Change the water everyday to keep it clear and free of bacteria. Always trim the stems slightly when changing the water to maintain hydration.

5. Avoid Direct Sunlight and Heat

• Keep your flowers in a cool, shaded spot, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, or drafts. Excessive heat can cause the flowers to wilt prematurely.

6. Maintain Proper Temperature

• Flowers thrive in temperatures between 65-72°F (18-22°C). Avoid placing them in cold drafts or near heating vents, as extreme temperatures can shorten their lifespan.

7. Recut the stems

• If the flowers start to wilt or droop, re-cut the stems by about 1 inch and place them in fresh water. This can help restore their freshness.
