Simple & Easy Gerbera Daisy Flower Care Tips:
- Make sure your vase is thoroughly cleaned prior to adding your Gerbera Daisy bouquet to it. They are particularly susceptible to bacteria, which can make the stem droopy.
- After receiving, remove the protective plastic cups from the blooms. Cut the stems at an angle and remove any leaves that are below the waterline. Bacteria grows and attaches itself to leaves in the water, so, the less you have under water, the better for your flowers.
- After prepping, immediately place your Daisy flowers into fresh and clean water. Remember to replace the water and recut the stems daily to reduce the build-up of bacteria!
- Use flower food in your vase water to keep your flowers happy and healthy. No flower food? Fill your vase with a teaspoon of sugar to make a homemade and nutritious snack for your Gerbera Daisies.
- Place them away from heat as Daisies thrive best in cooler temperatures. Do keep them away from any fruits or vegetables too, as they produce ethylene gas that is lethal to your flowers.
As you can see, it’s super easy and simple to care for your Gerbera Daisy bouquet, just a few minutes of your day and our helpful steps!
