Extending the Life of Your Mother's Day Bouquet

Once you've selected the perfect affordable bouquet, make sure Mom knows how to keep it looking fresh for as long as possible. Here are some simple care tips:

Trim the stems: Upon receiving the flowers, trim the stems at a 45-degree angle to help them absorb water more efficiently.
Remove foliage below the waterline: This prevents bacterial growth and keeps the water cleaner.
Change the water regularly: Refresh the water every 1-2 days and add flower food to nourish the blooms.
Keep away from direct sunlight and heat: These can cause the flowers to wilt faster.

Beyond Flowers: Thoughtful Add-Ons

To make your affordable Mother's Day bouquet even more special, consider adding a small, thoughtful gift. A handwritten card expressing your love and appreciation will mean the world to Mom. You could also include a small box of her favorite chocolates or a scented candle to complement the flowers.
