What is the most popular flower?

Flower care

For example, chrysanthemums can be stored for 2 to 4 weeks.
Orchids and carnations 2 to 3 weeks.

Lilies, sunflowers, and alstroemerias are also long-lived and are preserved for up to 2 weeks.
Remember that all bouquets will be able to last for the specified time and longer only with proper handling.

Why do flowers make us happy?

The answer lies in science.
Admiring the beauty of a bouquet prompts our brain to release dopamine, the "happiness hormone."

Why do flowers make us happy?

This is because, as our ancestors evolved, they came to associate bright, blooming plants with the start of spring after a long, hungry winter. 
Today, when we see flowers, we still expect something positive.
Meanwhile, tending to plants has been proven to reduce stress and foster joy.

How to properly care for flowers.

The best way to care for your flowers is to change the water in the vase every other day.
When watering, you should also cut the flower stem at an angle (45 degrees) so that it can absorb as much water as possible.

Another good tip is to store your flowers in a cool, dry place so that the weather outside (or the heat inside) doesn't affect them.
