Gumpaste flowers will last like almost forever well that's probably exaggerating but I always have flowers in reserve. As long as they are stored properly and away from moisture they will last and last. A lot of people keep gumpaste flowers from their cakes as keepsakes for years
hope this helps

The above roses were made in Feb of 2008. They still sit on my mom's bar at her house to this day. They are a little dusty but other than that fine. Now I wouldn't put them on a cake at this point, but you can see that you can make them well in advance and they will be fine.
If you are doing them for a cake, you just want to keep them in a cool, dry enviroment. To keep completed flowers from getting dusty I would just put them in a cardboard cake box so they are covered.
