The Shades of Spring hydrangea bouquet is bursting with 8 stems of mini hydrangeas in lime green hues that capture the essence of springtime no matter the season. While the individual blooms on these hydrangeas are miniature, the Shades of Spring bouquet makes a big statement, with each stem carefully selected for its vibrant color and lush texture that is sure to brighten any space.
1. The Perfect Cut. Use a sharp knife or gardening clippers for a clean 45-degree cut. Immediately place the freshly cut stem into water. This ensures maximum water absorption. 2. The Hot Water Trick. Immerse the bottom of the stems in boiling water for 30 seconds. This simple trick helps to prevent wilting and prolongs the bloom's freshness. 3. Condition and Preserve. Mix a preservative substance with tap water. This boosts their longevity and keeps them vibrant for longer. 4. Trimming and Arranging. Remove leaves below the waterline and trim the stems to your desired length. This prevents stagnation and keeps your Hydrangeas looking fresh. 5. Dunk your blooms. If the bloom starts to wilt, fill your sink with cool water, and dunk the heads of the hydrangeas right under the water. Leave them for at least 15 minutes. Remove them from the water, gently pat them dry with paper towels. Place in a vase filled with fresh water.
Heads up! Your bouquet might include slightly different flowers or colors than the arrangement pictured. Some flowers may arrive in bud form, which will gradually open as they reach full bloom.
