Great info! I also find that keeping my bouquet out of the direct sun and away from my heaters helps them last longer. I also like arrangements that contain tropical flowers, because they seem to last so much longer than regular flowers.

You may like to be close to your TV, computer and heater, but your flowers don’t! All of these generate enough heat to shorten the life of flowers. Did you know that some flowers naturally last longer than others? Daisies, Gerbers, Mums, Carnations, Alstroemeria and Lilies will look the freshest, the longest.

I got to admit, I’m guilty of the bleach method. I think its a 50/50 shot on if it actually made any difference. I have noticed that cutting the stems frequently does seem to help them last the longest.
