How long do cut tulips last?
Cut tulips last around 5 days. They will continue to open fully throughout their vase life.
How do I prepare my tulips for a vase?
To prepare your tulips for their vase, follow the simple steps below:
1. Unwrap your flowers and re-cut the stems using a pair of FLOWERBX Floral Scissors, about 2 - 3cm from the bottom at a 45° angle. This encourages water absorption and maximises vase life.
2. Remove excess foliage, the outer leaves and anything else that would sit below the waterline, as this will otherwise create debris build-up in your vase.
3. Next, fill your vase with lukewarm clean water, making sure to refresh it daily, or whenever the water turns murky. Top up with FLOWERBX Flower Food.
How do you keep cut tulips from drooping?
To keep tulips from drooping, try some of the following tips!
Choose young tulips that have closed flower heads.
Keep your stems in water at all times.
Always remove leaves below water level.
Cut your tulip stems at a 45-degree angle to help with water absorption.
Top up with fresh, cold water and flower food.
Choose a tall and supportive vase style.
Avoid heat sources, drafts, and extreme temperatures.
Add a penny to your vase - the copper helps keep their stems straight!
How do I care for tulips at home?
Our florists have rounded up some essential tips for caring for your tulips at home:
1. Keep your vase topped up with clean, cold water.
2. Keep your room temperature cool.
3. Keep your tulips out of direct sunlight.
What style of vase should I use for my tulips?
The best kind of vase to use for tulips is one that'll support them from their tallest stem length. As a rule, your vase should be at least half as tall as your tulip stems. However, you may wish to switch to a shorter vase over time, as you cut your stems down. We would recommend our Royal Windsor Vase, Tall Wickstead Vase, or Wickstead Pot to perfectly showcase your flowers.
Which is the most popular tulip colour?
The most popular tulip colour is red or pink. Specifically, the most popular tulip in this shade is the Angelique variety. It's not hard to see why, as it has soft pink flowers in a double tulip style, with an appearance very similar to a peony. You can shop our pink double tulip here
