Maintenance and Care for Live Wreaths and Garlands

Keep your live wreaths and garlands fresh and fragrant throughout the holiday season with a few simple care steps.

• Hydrate Regularly: Fresh greenery naturally dries out indoors, so mist your wreaths and garlands lightly every few days with water to maintain moisture and vibrancy. For outdoor use, occasional rain or humidity will help keep them fresh longer.
• Avoid Direct Heat: Place greenery away from fireplaces, radiators, and heating vents, as dry air will shorten their lifespan.
• Display in Cooler Areas: Live wreaths and garlands last longest when kept in cool, shaded areas—perfect for covered porches, entryways, or breezeways.
• Use Floral Preservatives (Optional): A light spray of anti-desiccant or greenery preservative can help retain moisture and keep needles lush and soft.

With a little care, your wreaths and garlands will remain beautiful, fragrant, and festive throughout the season—adding that authentic, natural charm only fresh greenery can provide.
