Protea Venus Flower

Preparation

• Trimming Stems: Trim 1-2 inches from the stems at a 45-degree angle with clean scissors to enhance water uptake.
• Remove Foliage: Remove any leaves that may sit below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth.

Watering

• Fresh Water: Use a clean vase filled with cool, fresh water. Change the water every 2-3 days or when cloudy.
• Flower Food: Add floral preservative or flower food to the water to help nourish the protea venus and prolong its life.

Placement

• Ideal Location: Position the vase in a cool area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts for better longevity.
• Ethylene Sensitivity: Keep protea flowers away from ripening fruits to minimize exposure to ethylene gas.

Longevity Tip

• Maximizing Vase Life: Regularly re-trim the stems and remove any spent blooms to keep the arrangement looking fresh.
