How long does a funeral arrangement stay fresh?

How long a funeral arrangement stays fresh depends on several factors, including the temperature, the types of flowers used and where the arrangement is placed. If it is placed on a grave in the shade in moderate temperatures and the floral foam is regularly topped up with water, it can easily stay fresh for a week. In direct sunlight at temperatures above 30°C, freezing conditions or heavy rain, its lifespan will be considerably shorter. On average, a funeral arrangement will stay fresh for around 4 to 7 days.
