01

Don't leave your flowers in a hot vehicle.

After being cut from their bulbs, tulips are particularly sensitive to heat, which can cause them to wilt prematurely. To preserve their freshness, it's essential to keep them in a cool spot away from direct sunlight.

02

Vase and Water

Place the tulips in a clean vase filled with cool water. Make sure to change the water every 2-3 days to keep it fresh and free from bacteria

Place the vase in a cool area away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Tulips tend to wilt faster in warm environments, so keeping them cool helps them stay fresh longer.

Cut Tulips Keep Growing: Stem Care

Despite being cut, tulips continue to grow. Trim the stems every few days to promote water uptake and prevent them from becoming slimy. This helps the tulips stay hydrated and fresh and ensures your arrangement looks its best.

04

Keep tulips away from fruits

Fruits emit ethylene gas, which can cause flowers to age faster.
