Buy THESE 10 Cut Flowers (They Last the Longest!) - StyleBlueprint

Billy balls, Billy buttons, and woolly heads.LisianthusSarah Marshall, owner and lead florist of Gaia Florals in Birmingham, AL, says the long-stemmed Lisianthus is one of her favorites. “Of the flowers that I routinely use, the longest-lasting showstopper is Lisianthus,” she says. “It holds beautifully.” It’s known by many names, including the “Texas bluebell” and the “poor man’s rose,” and it can last between seven and 10 days. Fair warning: It tends to be susceptible to rot if it’s sitting in unclean water, so be sure to change it out daily for the best results.SnapdragonsSarah tells us, “Snapdragons are the long-lasting cool-season winner.” In the right conditions, they can last seven to 10 days. When choosing your snapdragon stem, look for stalks that have one-third to one-half of their pods open.Top row, left to right: Calla Lilies, Snapdragons, Lisianthus; Bottom: CraspediaRELATED: How To Get Any Stain Out: Your Ultimate Stain Removal GuideAmaryllisGreg Campbell, co-owner of Garden District in Memphis, TN, says the Amaryllis is his favorite long-lasting flower choice for the winter. Native to West Africa, the Amaryllis can last more than two weeks. It’s often associated with strength because it’s tall and sturdy, and it can actually last even longer in a vase than when planted.CelosiaA summer bloom, Celosia is another top pick for Sarah. It can run the color spectrum from blood red to goldenrod, and it looks like ocean coral or something that jumped out of a Dr. Seuss story. It’s a member of the Amaranth family and sometimes lasts over two weeks.EryngoMattie Bush, owner of Amelia’s Flower Truck in Nashville, TN, is big on Eryngo. An eye-catching flowering herb, it’s bluish-purple, prickly looking, and resembles a thistle. Also referred to as Flat Sea Holly, Eryngo has an incredibly long vase life, sometimes lasting well over two weeks. We are grateful to all our sponsors:LimoniumLimonium is another one of Mattie’s choices. Also known as Sea Lavender, even though it has no relation to lavender at all, Limonium looks more fragile than it is. Often used for bouquet filler, Limonium can last one to two weeks, and it retains its color when dried out.Magnum MumsMagnum Mums round out Mattie’s top three long-lasting flowers. An oversized chrysanthemum with hundreds of petals, the beautiful bloom is an impressive flower that can last up to two weeks.RanunculusLauren is a fan of using Ranunculus for long-lasting arrangements.

Arnold, co-owner, Arnold’s Flower Shop.Without proms and graduations, sales are still expected to be tough.“Graduation and commencement and all of those things a lot of small businesses especially florists depend on those.

Those flights aren’t happening right now.“Also just being able to get flowers alone, you have farms in South America who are having to throw them out in multiple trailer truckloads because there's nobody to buy them,” said Mosher-Arnold.With the flowers they do have, they’re delivering the joy of Easter. https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny/news/2020/04/11/flower-shop-reopens-for-no-contact-home-deliveries

Her business, now based in Haddow Street, has grown during lockdown when a number of local clients decided to send bouquets to friends and family to cheer them up when they couldn’t physically meet. “It’s been going really, really good,” Michelle said. “10 years ago, I had a shop in Blantyre but I had to let go of it because I was ill. “I’ve had some customers but with lockdown I was getting busier with the flowers. That’s when I decided to go back into it and open a wee shop. “At the moment, everything is done online - rather than face to face - or over the telephone. The customers have put a lot of faith into me because they’ve not seen it. They trust me and trust my judgement. “I’ve been advertising on Facebook and I’ve got a wee room so I can do more flowers. We’re having a wee open day on Saturday - I’ve got the hand sanitizer, we’ll... https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/local-news/hamilton-florists-business-gone-strength-22502590
