Camellia flowers originated from China – Tibet, about 4000 years ago. In Vietnam, camellia is considered as a symbol of wealth, money, prosperity, and luck. Understanding the meaning of camellia flowers, every household in Vietnam often brings a camellia pot in front of the house to pray for wealth, fortune, and luck for the whole family.
Perhaps, there is no other flower that can compare to camellia flowers because of their large diameter of about 20 – 30cm and various colors. One can be fascinated by the pure beauty of white camellia flowers, feel the gentleness of pink camellia flowers, and even perceive the hotness through red camellia flowers… However, camellia flowers are selective and delicate. If you buy them when they have already bloomed, they won’t last long. If you buy them while the buds are still intact, it takes a long time for them to bloom. To make the flowers bloom beautifully as desired, you can follow these tips:
1. Use light
Place the flower vase in a well-lit area or near a light source. Camellia flowers bloom faster and larger if they are continuously exposed to light for 14 – 16 hours.
2. Use warm water
Of course, warm water, not boiling water. The ideal temperature should be around 35-40°C. Fill the vase with water up to the same level as the stem and let it sit in a cool place for 1-2 hours. The molecules in warm water will penetrate the flowers faster, and the flowers will lose less moisture in a cool place. This method is one of the secrets to make camellia flowers bloom faster.
In addition, to stimulate flower blooming, you should change the water twice a day, spray warm mist on the flowers and leaves. In the evening, keep the flower vase in a closed room without wind to make the flowers bloom 2 – 3 days earlier.
3. Use aspirin (available at pharmacies)
Crush and dissolve a few aspirin tablets or dissolve a few grams of urea in the water for flower arrangement. Aspirin and urea will provide more salts and organic minerals, helping the flowers grow faster and bloom quicker.
4. Trim the leaves
Too many leaves can make the flower vase look heavy, and the flower arrangement water becomes spoiled, causing the flowers to wither quickly, especially delaying the blooming process. When arranging the flowers, you should remove some leaves, make a diagonal cut at the stem base to help the flowers absorb more water and bloom earlier and fresher.
5. Choose the right flower vase
The choice of flower vase also plays a significant role in the outcome. Besides patterns, width, and height, we need to pay attention to the material of the vase and whether it is suitable for the type of flowers. Simple glass vases are suitable and enhance the natural beauty for most types of flowers, including camellias. Additionally, you can use a glass vase with a moderate length, cut the flowers shorter than normal to help them absorb more nutrients and bloom faster.
