How to Care for Fresh Hydrangeas in a Vase
Hydrangeas are loved for their lush, full blooms and soft romantic appearance. While they are incredibly beautiful, hydrangeas require a little extra attention to stay hydrated and fresh. Petal Perfection Flower Company recommends these simple care tips to help your hydrangeas last longer.
Hydrangeas Need Plenty of Water
Hydrangeas are thirstier than many flowers, so keep the vase filled with fresh water at all times. Check water levels daily.
Trim Stems Frequently
Cut hydrangea stems at a sharp angle every two days. This helps the stems absorb water more effectively.
Mist the Blooms
Hydrangeas absorb moisture through their petals as well as their stems. Lightly mist the blooms with water to keep them hydrated.
Keep Flowers Cool
Avoid placing hydrangeas in direct sunlight or warm rooms. Cooler temperatures help prevent wilting.
Revive Wilted Hydrangeas
If your hydrangeas begin to droop, submerge the flower heads in cool water for 20 to 30 minutes. This often helps restore their fullness.
