Tried-and-True Blooms for Hot Weather
Some flowers seem built for the breeze of spring. Others? They’re made for UAE summers. Here are our florist-approved picks for long-lasting flowers in the UAE, chosen for their resilience, structure, and staying power.
Chrysanthemum
Why it works:
Chrysanthemums are dependable and structured. These sunny blooms don’t just brighten a bouquet — they hold their shape beautifully and require minimal maintenance in warm interiors.
Perfect for:
Everyday home arrangements, thank-you gifts, or long-lasting cheer
Sunflower
Why it works:
With thick stems and strong blooms, sunflowers love the sun. Keep them hydrated and you’ll enjoy their bold radiance for days.
Perfect for:
Energizing entryways, cheerful gifting, or brightening any work desk
Protea
Why it works:
A true summer warrior, protea thrives in high temperatures. With a sculptural, exotic look, it holds up through heat and time.
Perfect for:
Statement displays, modern interiors, or standout gifting moments
Rose
Why it works:
Roses are surprisingly summer-resilient when properly cared for. Keep them trimmed, misted, and away from direct sun, and they’ll retain their timeless charm.
Perfect for:
Romantic gestures, elegant self-gifting, or floral classics with staying power
Lisianthus
Why it works:
Light and airy, Lisianthus holds up well in cool rooms. It’s a quiet bloom with unexpected strength — just like summer serenity.
Perfect for:
Minimalist spaces, wellness corners, or peaceful arrangements
Hydrangea
Why it works:
Hydrangeas demand a little more care in the heat, but when kept hydrated and placed in cooled rooms, they remain lush and lovely.
Perfect for:
Indoor styling, pastel palettes, or thoughtful short-term arrangements
How to Help Flowers Last in UAE Summers
Even heat-resistant flowers need a little help during peak season. Here’s how to get the most out of your bouquet:
- Keep flowers away from direct sunlight and AC vents
- Change vase water every other day
- Mist delicate petals occasionally
- Trim stems diagonally every few days
- Remove leaves submerged in water to avoid bacterial growth
- Use clean vases and floral food if available
Every arrangement from House of Flowers is already conditioned for UAE summers — but a little extra care can make all the difference.
