Nothing is more refreshing than decorating a home with farmhouse flowers fresh from the supply. Without any idea where to start, we suggest looking for either zinnia, hydrangeas, delphinium, marigolds, daisies, salvia, lisianthus, bleeding hearts, or snapdragons. However, every farmhouse flower has a unique theme it portrays, and, ideally, you find a perfect one for your home.
Hydrangeas
These flowers add a touch of whimsy to your farmhouse-themed room. However, it’s advisable to remove the leaves from the hydrangeas stem and cut its stem under water to prolong its life span. Woody stems characterize these farmhouse flowers. Therefore, it’s best to poke small holes in the stem with a needle to increase water absorption. Fresh cut hydrangeas can last up to 7 days if well maintained or longer.
Stargazer lilies
These farmhouse flowers are popular for their bright magenta and white color, which makes them easily notable when in a room. Unlike hydrangeas, stargazer lilies can last for 12 days or more. However, their anthers produce orange pollen that can stain delicate clothes, upholstery, or carpet; placing it on a vase makes them more decent and presentable in your home with a farmhouse theme.
Gerbera daisies
These farmhouse flowers have a casual style making them suitable for your theme. However, Gerbera Daisies are available in shades and colors, and they can make any room feel youthful and carefree. When they appear discolored and soggy, cut their tips at an angle to increase their lifespan. When placed in a vase, Gerbera Daisies lasts for 7 days or so.
Tulips
These are iconic spring flowers that fit almost all farmhouse-themed rooms. You can preserve them by adding lemon juice (2 tablespoons), sugar (1 tablespoon), and bleach (1½ teaspoon); this gives it up to 10 days lifespan.
Blue Irises
The lifespan drastically reduces once you cut Blue Irises; it, therefore, is best if you opt for bunches within the bud stage. Fill the vase with fresh water and keep them away from direct sunlight to extend its lifespan.
The above mentioned are the top 5 best farmhouse flowers from a farmhouse-themed house. However, it’s always ideal to buy only fresh supplies to ensure your flower last long enough and learn how to maintain them.
