Flowers are a great ornament in the house. Putting a vase with some rose in it in the living room not only colors the place but also gives people a good mood. However, fresh flowers need to be taken good care of and can only be kept for a while. Therefore, people nowadays tend to place preserved flowers or dried flowers instead.
Dried flowers, as the name suggests, are "dry" plants. Plants shrink and curl when dehydrated, so the petals are usually wrinkled,hard,and brittle. Dried flowers gradually turn into a dead yellow color and flake off naturally over time. Generally speaking, dried flowers can be stored for 1-2 years.
The dried flowers are lignified, so they can replace the diffuser stick to absorb the essential oils and have the function of diffusing.
Dried flowers need to be placed in a dry and ventilated environment to avoid moisture and direct sunlight. Because the dried flower is hard and brittle, try not to let the flower press on the wall to prevent it from embrittlement and damage.
Preserved flowers are a kind of flower art which keep the characteristics of fresh flowers through special technology. Their color, shape and texture are the same as those of fresh flowers.
The biggest difference between preserved flowers and dried flowers is that preserved flowers retain a "soft feeling" and can be kept for 3-5 years if taken good care of.
Preserved flowers are afraid of moisture, so never water them or place them in damp places to avoid mold or softening of the flowers. Putting them under the sun will accelerate the petals fading and shorten the lifespan.
Flowers have the power to change the atmosphere in the house. A small size of the flower decoration can make your room eye-catching. If you are too busy to take care of the fresh flowers or are allergic to pollen, preserved flowers and dried flowers would be a good choice.
