Arranging Pink Tulips: The third
most popular flower in the world, pink tulips were once the symbol of
the Turkish empire. Shipped in bud form directly from the “land
of tulips” in Holland, your red tulips have traveled a long distance
and may be thirsty upon arrival. Your red tulips will continue to grow
and change after being cut, so leave enough room for your red tulips to
grow and move while arranging. Don’t be afraid to cut, as your bouquet
will look good with red tulips in varying lengths. Red Tulips have a natural
tendency to bend and lilt, to seek light, so keep this in mind when placing
your red tulip bouquet under a direct light source.
Pink Tulip Bouquet Care Tips: Your pink tulip bouquet has an estimated vase life of 4-6 days. If properly
taken care of your pink tulip bouquet may last longer. Don’t be
afraid to cut your tulip stems, as your bouquet will look good with pink
tulips in varying lengths and will also help the tulips drink water better.
After trimming your pink tulip stems, fill the vase with lukewarm water
and add first packet of floral food. Tulips are heavy drinkers, so make
sure you feed them some fresh water daily. To straighten bent tulips,
wrap the tulip stems tightly in damp newspaper, secure with an elastic
band, and stand in deep, lukewarm water with light directly above them.
Leave for a couple of hours, and pink tulip bouquet will be as good as
new. |
