Spring in a vase
How to make a magnolia branch in a vase bloom—try these simple tips
Magnolia branches in a vase bring spring indoors, but getting those buds to bloom takes a little care. Follow these simple tips and turn your bare branch into a breathtaking floral display.
Help your magnolia branch in vase bloom—here’s how you’ll succeed:
- Make a fresh cut in your magnolia branch and peel it a little. This helps it absorb water more effectively.
- Arrange your branches in a vase. Add warm or even hot water, as woody stems prefer it. If you wish, add flower food.
- Place the vase in indirect light, away from direct heat sources like a radiator.
- Make a new cut in the branches and replace the water in the vase with fresh warm water at least every few days, or even daily if it becomes cloudy. Mist the branches with water to help the buds open.
Tip!
Be patient, as it may take several days or even a week or more for the buds to open.
