To keep tulips from drooping in a vase, follow these simple tips:
- Use floral preserves, such as flower food packets, to mix into the water.
- Be mindful of plant pairings, such as daffodils and tulips, as they react well to fresh, clean water.
- Give your tulips a twist, as they can stand up to attention for longer.
- Make a fresh cut, using copper pennies to keep them upright and standing to attention.
By following these simple instructions, you can enjoy your tulips at their best and ensure they stay upright for longer. Trim your tulips by 3-5cm to allow water inside to hydrate them, and always cut at a 45-degree angle to give as much surface area to drink from.

- Drop a penny into the water, as the copper in the penny acts as a fungicide and naturally kills any drooping.
- Keep your tulips in a cool location and out of direct sunlight. Cut the stems and change the water daily or every other day. Rinse out the vase after each use to prevent drooping.
In summary, these tips can help keep your tulips upright and standing to attention for longer. By following these simple steps, you can enjoy your flowers at their best and ensure they stay upright for longer.
