Something New


I learned something today, and I'm pretty pleased about it. Have you ever bought roses that had drooping, floppy heads? This is nearly always caused by an air bubble preventing the water from getting up the stem.

Here's what you can do about it: fill a sink with water to a depth of a couple of inches. Submerge the roses in the water, and recut the stems while they are under water. Then, leave them for a couple of hours. This really works.
