Dong tien flowers are a popular and inexpensive type of flower that can be found in large and small markets throughout the year. However, they can be challenging to arrange due to their various stems and lack of leaves. Additionally, their hollow interior makes them prone to withering quickly.

To help overcome these difficulties, Ms. Ha Le, an experienced florist, shares some tips for arranging beautiful and long-lasting dong tien flowers.

Step 1: Select fresh flowers with no signs of rotting stems or wilting blossoms.

Step 2: Upon bringing the flowers home, carefully remove any plastic wrapping and separate them into three different lengths.

Step 3: Choose a suitable vase for the arrangement. For tall vases with small openings, arrange the flowers from highest to lowest in layers. For vases with wide mouths, arrange the flowers from lowest to highest. Use foam to secure the position of the flowers.

Ms. Ha advises keeping the dong tien flowers fresh by pouring a small amount of water, only enough to cover the base of the flower (about 3 cm). She also suggests taking the flowers out every 1-2 days, trimming the soaked part of the stem, washing the vase, refilling it with fresh water, to ensure the flowers remain fresh and last for up to 10 days.

“Dong tien flowers often have naturally curved stems, so arranging them in a vase creates a natural appearance. Additional leaves near the mouth of the vase can be added for a fuller and more graceful look,” Ms. Ha Le said.
