How to preserve baby's breath for a long time after buying it? Do you need to keep it in water?

1. Water preservation

If the newly bought baby's breath is not put into water, it will droop soon. You can find a cleaner vase, add no more than 2/3 of water into it, and insert the flower branches into it. If conditions permit, add some chemical preservatives to the water to make it last longer.

When stored at home, you need to change the water every 5 days or so. And prune the flower branches appropriately, that is, cut the bottom of the branch a little shorter so that it can have better contact with water, which can also extend the storage time to a certain extent. Note that its small flowers cannot be soaked in water, as they will easily rot.

2. Preservation of dried flowers

In areas with drier climates, the flowers are likely to dry up the next day after purchase, so they can be made into dried flowers directly. Bundle up the baby's breath you bought, hang it up, and make sure the environment is dry. It will be ready in about a week. After becoming dried flowers, they can generally be preserved for several months, but they must be kept ventilated and dry during daily maintenance.
