3 Best Long Lasting Flowers

You want flowers that last a long time.

Once cut, spring flowers like tulips, iris, and daffodils have a short lifespan.

Roses need to be re-cut every day or two, and kept as cool as possible. If your house is at 34 to 38 degrees Fahrenheit or 2 to 4 degrees Celsius, that can work. Now add in 87% humidity, and your roses could last forever!

After 20 years in the industry, you have told us that the following three flower types are THE best choice for long lasting flowers:

Alstromeria

Spray or mini-carnations

Standard Carnations

A floral arrangement of carnations, mini-carnations, and alstromeria can last from 14-21 days.

This mix provides you with excellent value, in a wide range of colour themes.
