How do you keep roses alive as long as possible?


Question:I received roses by Flowers.com and it gave instructions for the first few days. I was just wondering how i could keep em alive for as long as possible. Any ideas?

Answers:
Roses are beautiful! They dont usually last more than a week. But every day-every other day cut the stems a little at an angle, ,and change the water. If you decide to hang and dry them right before they die completely...they look beautiful then too.

Thats what i always do and they usually last about a week and half at least before they start wilting. Also make sure they arnt right in front of an AC or window.


Use the preserver you got with them, but cut the bottom of the stems off by about 4cm at an angle before putting them in the vase. Keep them cool and away from direct sunlight.
