How to Make Your Bouquet Last Longer in Dubai's Heat

Fresh bouquet care in Dubai: Color Me Happy Bouquet by La Fraise

Fresh flowers face a tougher environment in Dubai than in most cities — outdoor heat on one side, dry air conditioning on the other. A few simple habits can noticeably extend how long your bouquet stays fresh.

Keep it away from direct heat

  • Avoid placing the bouquet near windows with direct sun exposure
  • Keep it away from air conditioning vents, which dry flowers out quickly
  • Avoid leaving it in a parked car, even briefly, in Dubai's climate

Water and trimming basics

  • Trim stems at an angle every 2–3 days to help water absorption
  • Change the water regularly, especially in a warm room
  • Remove any leaves sitting below the waterline

A cooler room extends bouquet life

Flowers kept in a cooler, air-conditioned room (away from the vent itself) will generally last longer than those in a warm space, which is worth keeping in mind when deciding where to display a gifted bouquet.

Different flowers, different care needs

A mixed bouquet like Sweetheart or Color Me Happy has a variety of stem types, so it benefits from more frequent water changes than a single-flower bouquet. Sunflowers, as in The Sunshine Bouquet, are heavier-headed and drink more water, so keep the vase topped up more often than you might for roses alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a La Fraise bouquet typically last?

This varies by flower type, room conditions and care — following the steps above will generally help any bouquet last longer, but we can't guarantee an exact number of days given how much the environment affects it.

Should I refrigerate my bouquet in Dubai's heat?

A standard fridge is generally too cold for most flowers. The better approach is a cool, air-conditioned room away from direct vents and sunlight.
