Answer #2 Well happy v-day to you !!!! How sweet to get flowers from anonymous !!I found
the following for you but the most important thing is to change the water every
day in the vase.**********************************If you don't like to use
chemicals to prolong the life of your cut flowers, there are "natural"
alternatives. Some methods work better than others. **Here's one for you: does a
penny and an aspirin tablet placed in the vase water really do any good? Some
say the combination does keep flowers fresh longer. The theory is that the
copper acts a fungicide and the aspirin makes the water more acidic. Here are
more food + acid combinations:**Add one part lemon-lime soda (not diet) to 3
parts water. Then to each quart of this solution, add 1/4 teaspoon bleach.
Thereafter, add 1/4 teaspoon bleach after each 4 days of use. **To 1 quart water
add 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon
bleach. **Add 2 ounces Listerine mouthwash per gallon of water. Listerine
contains sucrose (food) and a bactericide. Listerine is acidic and is said help
water move up the cut stem. - answered by PamV
