Yes, but I think it's illegal to harvest panda spleens these days.
Put some lemonade in with the water !!
leave them in the garden ha ha
Add some flower nutrients in the water,
Keep them in a cool place.
Sprinkle or spray some water on them once in a while
Hang them upside down at night
But eventually they will still wither
Put some lemonade or tonic water in the water and top up regularly
I always put in a disolvable asprin, i know it sounds daft, but i have just thrown away a bouquet of flowers that i was given THREE AND A HALF WEEKS AGO, and that was only because the green leaves had gone yellow, the flowers themselves still looked good, try it. xx
If the flower have a woody stem cut the base of the stem at a sharp angle to allow take up of water.
If the flowers have hollow stems (daffodils) fill the stem with water, hold the end and place into the vase.
1st of all, make sure that no leaves are immersed in the water.
Put a single drop of household bleach into the water to purify it.
add 1 tablespoon of sugar.
Every day, cut the stem back slightly. change the water, add the bleach and sugar.
Your flowers will last much, much longer.
Have heard that a soluble aspirin in their vase water helps.
Lemonade
a cap full of household bleach and a spoon full of sugar in the water usually helps change the water every couple of days and refresh the sugar and bleach mixture, make sure the leaves r cut back from the stems and trim the bottoms of the flowers regular to keep revived
