The notion of life span is abstract because our plants are no longer alive. We prefer to talk about the « quality of life » or « duration of use » of stabilized flowers and plants.
Some plants lose their colour slightly, others darken, some curl up... Impossible to give a precise duration: the plant does not change radically from one day to the next. The proper conservation of preserved plants depends essentially on their conditions of use.
It can be said that, under optimal conditions of use, preserved plants and flowers remain beautiful for many years.
