To get sunflowers to open quickly, cut the stem, dip it in water, and let it sit at room temperature.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Cut the Stem: This is crucial. A fresh cut allows the sunflower to absorb water more efficiently.
-
Dip in Water: Immediately after cutting, dip the cut end of the sunflower stem into water.
-
Room Temperature: Place the sunflower in a vase with fresh water and let it sit at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight initially.
The video suggests that these steps will help your sunflowers open up quickly and look their best.
