CUT FLOWER PRESERVATIVE #1
I stumbled across this recipe for making your own flower preservative on About.com today. TIPS: To keep your cut flowers fresh you need to give them water and food, protect them from decay or infection, plus keep them cool and out of direct sunlight. Try to keep your flowers away from ripe fruit as the gases will shorten their life. Keep them in a cool area and away from direct sunlight. Flowers with milky latex-containing sap such as poinsettia, heliotrope, hollyhock, euphorbia and poppies need special treatment. The milky sap prevents water loss by the stem but in cut flowers it prevents the absorption of water. To prevent this problem dip the bottom tips (1/2 inch) of the stems in boiling water for about 30 seconds, or by flashing the tips of the stems with a lighter or other flame.

Steps:
- Discard decaying leaves and flowers and any foliage which would be below the water line, plus any unnecessary leaves.
- Trim bottom ends of flower stems by cutting on an angle to maximize the surface area for water and to prevent the ends from resting flat on the bottom of the vase.
- Mix lemon-lime beverage, bleach, and warm water. Be sure to use warm water (100-110 degrees Fahrenheit or 38-40 Celsius). It will move up the stems more effectively than cold water; add flowers.

10 WAYS TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF CUT ROSES - EVERYDAY LAURA
From everydaylaura.com
- Keep the roses in water on the way home. I know this is a hassle but keeping roses in water while driving home greatly extends the life, especially if you have a long drive home.
- Proper cutting is essential. Roses must always be trimmed before displaying them and sharp clean floral shears or scissors are essential. Cut at a clean 45 degree angle to help with water absorption, and take care not to tear or crush the stem as this can promote bacteria.
- Trim rose stems in water. When roses are cut and exposed to air a scab can form which prohibits water absorption. A simple solution is to cut the stems in a bowl of water or under running water, then immediately transfer to a vase.
- Always use floral food. When purchasing flowers make sure to use the little packet of powdered floral food. I’m a huge fan of liquid flower food, I find it much quicker to mix and a bottle lasts a long time.
- Keep the water clean. Having clean water free of bacteria is crucial for prolonging the life of your roses. Be sure to switch out the water every few days water and be sure that leaves of the stem and any falling petals are kept out of the water.
