By balancing the pH of the water and preventing bacterial blockages, Chrysal RVB Clear Intensive helps your Viburnum blooms last longer and retain their color, allowing for a more vibrant and marketable product. This simple yet effective treatment is a must-have for any grower looking to provide top-quality Viburnum blooms.
Viburnum Care Tips at the Florist
In the shop, maintaining optimal conditions for your Viburnum blooms is essential. Start by ensuring all buckets, vases, and tools are thoroughly cleaned. Flowers that have been pre-treated with Chrysal RVB Clear Intensive will stay vibrant, but it’s also beneficial to use Chrysal Professional 2 in the shop. This conditioner extends the life of your flowers by up to 50%, providing them with just the right amount of nutrients while preventing them from opening too soon. In addition to the flowers, ensure that your workspace is free of contaminants, as this can negatively affect the blooms. Provide your customers with Chrysal Syringa flower food, to help them enjoy their Viburnum arrangements at home for as long as possible.
Viburnum Care Tips at Home
To get the most out of your Viburnum blooms at home, follow these simple care tips:
- Always start by using a clean vase, ideally made of glass. Cleanliness is essential for preventing bacterial growth.
- Cut the stems 2-3 cm with a clean, sharp knife or secateurs to ensure the Viburnum can properly absorb water and nutrients.
- Viburnum thrives in water that contains flower food. Add Chrysal Syringa flower food to the vase water to extend the vase life of your flowers by up to 60%.
- Keep your flowers away from drafts, direct heat, and sunlight to avoid premature wilting.
By following these care tips, you can enjoy the timeless beauty of Viburnum flowers for longer and keep your home filled with their natural elegance.
