When choosing flowers, buyers mainly pay attention only to the beauty and splendor of the bouquet, without thinking about what manipulations the sellers are doing with it so that it looks the most advantageous and fresh. In order to choose really fresh flowers, there are some details to consider.
Instructions
Step 1
When buying a flower, pay attention to its stem and leaves, they should be pure green, without brown edges and veins. The color of the bud should be bright and rich, the petals should be intact.
Step 2
When buying flowers, gently peel back the petals of a couple of buds. If they immediately return to their original form, you have come across a fresh, moisture-filled plant. Otherwise, the flower will wither the next day.
Step 3
A young rose can be identified by a tight, half-open, pollen-free bud. A mature flower has a loose bud or has pollen. Such a rose will live for a maximum of a couple of days.

Do not buy roses with buds in mesh or clear mica cups. This is how they mask plants, the buds of which were accidentally broken. To do this, a piece of wire is inserted into the stem, a bud is strung on it and a decorative cup is placed on top.
Step 5
If you want to buy a bouquet, do not take one prepared in advance. It is better to ask the seller to collect it with you, such a composition will stand much longer, because you yourself will choose the flowers in it.
