Answer #3
aspirin is an anti-inflammatory drug that inhibits an enzyme ... i think it's called cox-1 or something like that. i am no flower expert but im pretty sure they don't have that enzyme! but anyway, i highly doubt that it would have any kind of positive benefit to flowers cause that's an animal enzyme. i think you'd be much more successful with a nutrient packet!! (you can get them from any gardening store..)
