🌹The Complete Guide to Preserved Flower Care & Maintenance Tips

Keep Your Eternal Roses Beautiful for Years


💡Why Preserved Flowers Require Special Care

Preserved flowers are real blooms treated to retain their natural beauty for 1–3 years or longer. Unlike fresh flowers, they don’t need water or sunlight, but proper care ensures they stay vibrant. This guide is perfect for retailers, event planners, or gift box sellers looking to maintain the quality of preserved roses.

1. Keep Preserved Flowers Dry

Moisture is the enemy of preserved flowers, as they are humidity-sensitive. Excess water can cause petals to fade, mold, or turn transparent.

💧Do:

  • Store in a dry, low-humidity environment.
  • Use silica gel packets in display or shipping boxes.

🚫Don’t:

  • Mist with water or place in bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoor areas.
  • Store in high-humidity climates without climate control.

2. Protect from Sunlight and Heat

Preserved flowers are sensitive to UV rays and heat, which can fade colors or dry out petals.

💡Ideal Conditions:

  • Maintain room temperature (18–25°C / 65–77°F).
  • Keep away from windows, radiators, or heaters.

3. Handle with Care

The delicate petals of preserved flowers can crack or flatten with frequent handling.

Display Tips:

  • Use a glass dome or acrylic box for protection.
  • Avoid stacking items on top during storage.

4. Dust Gently When Needed

Dust can accumulate on preserved flowers over time, but cleaning is simple.

🧼Cleaning Methods:

  • Use a soft makeup brush, air blower, or low-power mini vacuum.
  • Avoid wiping with cloths or wet tissues.

5. Shipping & Packaging Tips for Resellers

For businesses shipping preserved flowers:

  • Use shockproof packaging like foam inserts or air pillows.
  • Include care cards in every package.
  • Use sealed packaging to protect from moisture and odors.
