Tulips are beautiful to look at, but usually not for long. With a few tricks, the flowers will stay fresh longer.
For one you need a cent piece. Other spring flowers such as snowdrops or daffodils also look good in a vase. But be careful: the early bloomers are not allowed to be picked in North Rhalia. If you collect too much of the plant, expect a high price for your tulip bouquet. The same applies to wild garlic - you may have to face a fine in the North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, for picking too many of the wild garlic. The tulips are very thirsty. For this reason, the water in the vase must also be right. Tulips like it soft and low in lime. Water that contains a lot of lime should be run through a filter or descaled with baking soda. Fresh rainwater from the rain barrel is ideal. Because even if the flowers don't have enough water, they quickly droop their heads.
