  Tips from Shiam Blossoms:

• When choosing flowers, look for flowers at their peak - firm, succulent, and not discolored along their edges.
• Some varieties of cut flowers last longer than others and can remain vibrant for long periods.
• Keep them in a cool spot (65 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit), away from direct sunlight and heating.
• Keep the floral foam soaked in water and keep the vase filled with water.
• Cut the stem with sharp pruning shears.
