Sunflowers are hardy flowers that, with the right care, provide a summery atmosphere for a long time. Here are the most important tips to keep your Sunny Smile bouquet fresh:

Immediate care upon receipt

• Clean vase: Use a clean, tall vase to properly support the heavy stems.

• Trimming: Use a sharp knife to cut the stems at an angle by approximately 2 to 5 cm. Sunflowers have thick stems that clog quickly, so a fresh cut is essential for water absorption.

• Remove leaves: Remove all leaves that fall below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth and cloudy water.

Water and nutrition

• Lukewarm water: Fill the vase with lukewarm water and add the provided flower food.

• Thirsty flowers: Sunflowers are thirsty flowers. Check the water level daily and top it up regularly.

• Change water: Completely refresh the water every two to three days and trim the stems at an angle again.

The best spot

• Not too warm: Despite their name, sunflowers in a vase do not like direct heat. Place them in a bright spot, but avoid direct sunlight and radiators.

• Draft-free: Place them in a spot without drafts to prevent the flowers from drooping.

• Keep away from fruit: Like many other flowers, sunflowers are sensitive to ethylene gas from ripening fruit.

Extra tip: If a sunflower begins to wilt, recut the stem at an angle and place the flower in a separate vase with deep, lukewarm water for a few hours to restore the pressure in the stem.
