How to keep that beautiful bouquet fresh and lovely?  To a quart of water add two tablespoons each of white vinegar and sugar.    The vinegar will help inhibit bacteria and the sugar nourishes the plant.  Be sure to cut the stems at an angle and pop the flowers into the solution.  Cut the stems every day to allow the water to be drawn up by the flowers.

About Bunny Chafowitz

Bunny Attacked by Morning Glory

Bunny Chafowitz hops around Fresno County, California, where she is (among other things) a Master Gardener.

She also loves to cook — and anyone who has eaten her food can tell you one taste of her cooking will have you thumpin' for more.

When not being attacked by Morning Glory, Bunny writes primarily about her gardening activities, but will also include posts about her cooking.
