stem of a flower and reduce the amount of water that can reach the bloom. When
you are cutting the stem place the knife on an angle and slice through the stem.
This creates a point at the end of the stem which maximizes the amount of water
that can reach the bloom.
Never place your fresh flowers where there might be a warm draft, such as, the top of a refrigerator or beside a heating vent. Fresh flowers last longer when they are at room temperature or lower.
When arranging calla lilies in a bridal or bridesmaid bouquet, keep in mind that the flower stems can drip, leaving stains or marks on dresses or other material. To avoid this, let the flowers stay approximately 30 minutes out of water before holding close to fabric.
