How to prolong the flowering period of carnations

maintainance

First of all, after buying the carnations, cut off the leaves at the bottom that are intended to be inserted into the water, and cut the branches at an angle, then insert them into the water. After entering the water, keep a certain gap between the branches to ensure good ventilation.

Try not to spray water on the flowers during maintenance, otherwise the flowers will wilt. The beautiful appearance after spraying water is only temporary. Spraying water will accelerate their decay period and the flowers will easily rot.

Flowers are sensitive to ethylene. Many families may like to place vases on the coffee table with fruits and vegetables, but this is a wrong practice. Fruits all contain a certain amount of ethylene. If you keep them too close to it, it will be difficult to keep them fresh.

If the carnation has not yet bloomed, you can insert the stem into warm water at 20-24 degrees Celsius, or add a small amount of preservative liquid to promote flowering.

How to prolong the flowering period

First, the roots of the flowers should be cut diagonally. Check them after buying the carnations. Some flower shops will not do this to save trouble, so you have to do it yourself. Cut it diagonally so that the water-absorbing area is larger and can absorb more water.

Secondly, cut off some every day to ensure better absorption of water;

Also, change the water every day. If it is summer, in order to ensure that the water temperature is not too high, you can add a few vases into the water; at the same time, it is best to fill the vase with water, which can not only keep the water temperature longer, but also increase the weight of the bottom of the vase to ensure the stability of the vase.

In order to ensure that the flowers bloom longer, there is a little secret: put a little beer or two tablets of aspirin powder in the vase to extend the life of the flowers.
