Question : What kinds of cut flowers last the LONGEST?
I know carnations and alstroemeria last long, but are there any others? Estimations on days of life? What flowers don't last long at all? This is for ordering flowers for a relative (birthday) thru teleflorist. Thanks!

All Answers:
Answer #1 tulips are pretty hardy for your yard. A boquet of roses is the most meaningful
and prettiest to give someone , but will die in les than a week. Carnations are
pretty and last a bit longer. - answered by emoneymoneyemoney
Answer #2 teleflorists may not give great flowers in the sense of durability. Why not send
a potted plant they are more hard and last longer - answered by Terry W
Answer #3 This is always hard. I have found sending a plant or dish garden with a few
carnations placed, just to add color always makes a well received gift.Once the
cut flowers die away the plant still lives giving much pleasure to the
recipient. Personally I just love getting roses, even though they die away,
they are always beautiful, and smell delightful.Mixed Spring Floral Arrangements
are good also. Things will die away gradually, while others survive for a
little longer. It is so close to Christmas, how about a poinsettia. - answered by damsel36

Answer #6 It bothers me that flowers don't smell any more. Maybe for the sake of people
with allergies. IF allergies are not a problem you could order flowers
requesting that the bouquet has fragrance. I just ordered some for my daughter
on her BD. She said the fragrance filled her home. I usually try to call a
local florist where ever the person lives so I can get personal service. They
still give you the same prices as if you called teleflorist or FTD. Plus a $3
or $5 tip will insure you a beautiful bouquet. Nice to speak directly to the
people who are going to put the bouquet together. - answered by skooter
