Tips for carnation flower arrangement maintenance and preservation

Selection of carnation branches

When choosing carnations for flower arrangement, the first thing to pay attention to is its color. First, see whether the color is bright, then choose those with larger and neater buds. Generally, 3-4 buds are best. Secondly, choose carnations with thick stems and no spots. Finally, choose branches with leaves without spots, diseases, and sufficient nutrition, as these will have a longer flowering period.

Maintenance and preservation of carnation flower arrangements

Branch cutting

When we choose carnations for flower arrangement, we must pay special attention to keeping them fresh. First of all, we need to ensure that the branches absorb water and keep fresh. You can make an oblique cut at the root of the carnation to increase the water absorption area, so that the branches can absorb more water. Store the finished flower branches in a vase.

Watering method

What makes carnations different from ordinary flowers is the way they are watered. You cannot spray water directly on the flower heads, otherwise it will cause the flower heads to rot. So when spraying water, we can first cover the flower head with a thick layer of toilet paper, and then sprinkle clean water evenly on it, allowing the water to slowly penetrate, so as to prolong the flowering period.

Preservation Tips

If we want the flowers to bloom for a long time, we can gently peel the flower heads to make them fully open before arranging them, which can increase their beauty and prolong the viewing time. In addition, remove leaves soaked in water and maintain good ventilation to avoid bacterial growth and rot. Another important point is that carnations should be kept away from "ethylene", such as overripe fruits and vegetables, cigarettes, etc. Anti-ethylene preservatives can be added to the water.
