Sunflowers — How to Keep Sunflowers Fresh in a Vase
Sunflowers have large flower heads and can use water quickly. However, they do not need a deep water level — their thick stems keep better when only the lower part sits in water.
How to care for sunflowers:
- Fill a clean vase with cool water so that about 30% of the stem is in the water.
- Remove any leaves that will be below the water level.
- Trim the stems with a sharp knife or garden shears using a straight cut.
- If using flower food, add it according to the product instructions.
- Place the sunflowers in a cool location away from direct sunlight.
- Check the water level every day.
- If the water becomes cloudy, replace it and clean the vase.
- Refresh the stem cuts before placing the flowers back into fresh water.
Tip: Sunflower heads are heavy, so choose a vase with a solid base and a narrower neck — it will hold the stems upright and keep the arrangement stable.
