- When your bouquet arrives you may notice that the color hasn’t developed yet. We pick the tulips when they have tightly closed petals to give you the best vase life. When you place it in a warmer environment, they will start to open up and continue changing in color.
- Care for your blooms by giving them plenty of water. They are a thirsty variety. You will want to change the water at least every other day. Changing the water will keep them healthy and extend their lives.
- At the same time you change the water, give your stems another trim. Cutting at a 45-degree angle creates a straw effect and the flower can drink up the fresh water easily.
- Avoid placing a vase of tulips in direct sun or near heat. Tulips will grow toward sunlight and may bend a little when reaching. They are okay in indirect sunlight.
- When choosing a vase for your tulips, select one that is tall. Choose a vase that is at least half as tall as the flower stems. As you cut the tulips stems down, you can go with a shorter vase over time.
