Florist tricks for buying flowers they'll never tell you - take a quick look

When you go to a flower shop to buy flowers, how do you pick fresh blooms? There are still plenty of little tricks here, so let's learn them together.

1.

Where to buy flowers

The places where you can usually choose flowers include flower shops, roadside flower stalls, supermarkets, fresh flower wholesale markets, private studios and several other locations. If you need a relatively large variety and quantity, you can go to a fresh flower wholesale market, where there are many varieties and the prices are cheap; if you need a relatively small amount, you can choose places such as flower shops and roadside flower stalls. Everyone can decide according to their own actual situation.

2.

When to buy flowers

Try to buy flowers at noon, because most flowers are stocked in the morning. At this time the freshness is relatively good and there are relatively many varieties, so everyone can pick out many satisfactory flowers.

3.

Check the leaves of the flowers

Check whether the leaves of the flowers are full of vitality. If you find yellowed and wilted leaves, they are most likely no longer fresh.

4.

Observe the freshness of the blooms

Fresh flowers are necessarily plump and lively. If you find a lot of pollen on the petals, they are most likely about to wither, and this kind of flower will have a very short viewing period after you buy it and take it home. Here Huaye gives everyone a little suggestion: if it is not a gift for someone, you can choose flowers that are still in bud, so that after buying them and taking them home, you can still enjoy them for a long time.

5.

Check the freshness of the stems

Feel with your hand the part of the stem bottom that goes into the water. If you find the stems are sticky, it proves that the flowers have already been displayed for a long time.

6.

Check the length of the stems

In order to ensure the freshness of the flowers, the flowers left over each day in a flower shop all need to be trimmed again, so for the same kind of flower, the shorter the stem, the longer the time, and this kind of flower is mostly not fresh. When choosing, everyone should try to pick flowers with relatively long stems.
