But it is quite possible to change the situation: we have counted as many as nine ways to increase the lifespan of flowers that suddenly appeared in your home.

1. A thoroughly washed vase, on which there are no traces of pathogenic bacteria and microorganisms, will not threaten the life of your flowers.

2. Stems cut at an angle have a larger area for absorbing water, which means they will “drink” better and live longer.

3. A copper coin at the bottom of the vase will destroy all bacteria that are attacking your bouquet.4. Hairspray applied to the bottom of the petals will fix them and prevent them from wilting too quickly. Remember - you need to treat the flowers from below.

5. Cold is the second best friend of flowers after water. Try to place the vase in the coolest place.

6. Flower shops offer a huge number of small packets of useful substances. Pour the contents into a vase and enjoy the feeling of accomplishment.7.Write down the recipe: a cup of water, a cup of 7Up (yes, the drink), and half a teaspoon of bleach. It sounds scary, but your bouquet will love it. The 7Up will provide the necessary sugar, and the bleach will kill any remaining bacteria.
