Rospotrebnadzor specialists advised residents of Tomsk not to buy flowers in a parcel on March 8
First of all, Tomsk residents should pay attention to the flower stem. It should not be too dry, which may indicate that the flower has been cut for a long time.
The second external factor to which you should pay attention is the degree of opening of the bud. It is clear that you will not buy a fully opened tulip.
But it is worth paying attention to other flowers – it is desirable that the bud be half-open, although the open one looks more attractive.
Another sign that the flowers bought on March 8 are fresh is the elasticity of the petals. In a fresh flower, a slightly bent petal will always return to its place.
And the last. Rospotrebnadzor experts do not recommend buying bouquets in a package.
“If there is a shiny leaf ruffle or other decorations around the bud that you did not order, it may indicate an attempt to distract from the freshness of the bouquet,” the department advised locals. from Tomsk.
