When you buy flowers home, you often hope to see them for a few more days so that the flowering period can be longer. Whether the flowers are fresh or not is directly related to the viewing time. Let me share some tips on buying flowers.

Take a look

First look at the blooming degree of the flowers. If you are viewing them by yourself, it is best to choose flowers that are not fully open, especially lilies and sunflowers. Secondly, look at the petals and leaves. The fresh petals and leaves are very shiny. Fresh baby's breath looks very white and has full flowers. If it feels shriveled, dry, or black, it is not fresh. The petals of the gerbera should look flat. If the petals are not on a flat surface and look uneven, they must have been left there for many days. If the anthurium looks black and has soft central stigmas, it is not new.

Second touch

< /p>

Fresh flowers fully absorb water and are very stiff. If the buds are soft when pinched, such as roses, they are definitely not fresh; fresh love grass feels soft and moist in the hand, and if it looks like a handful If the dead grass is very hard, it must be stale; and the main way to tell whether a carnation is fresh or not is the stem. If it feels sticky or if the stem end turns yellow and rotten, it must have been left for many days.

Three challenges

Similar to grocery shopping, flowers bought in the morning are generally fresher than those bought in the evening, because flower markets and larger flower shops arrive in the morning.
