How to condition flowers

GREEN-STEMMED FLOWERS
All green-stemmed flowers must have their lower leaves removed, as any leaves that are submerged in water will rot easily, dramatically shortening the life of a flower. Then, bearing in mind the size of your arrangement, trim the flower stems: the shorter the stem, the longer the flower will last.

1. Re move 5 cm (2in) of stem from long flower sterns, cutting at the sharpest possible angle. With shortstemmed flowers, remove as much stem as possible, bearing in mind the size of your arrangement. 2. Remove all the leaves on the part of the stem that will be submerged in water in your arrangement. Remove a few extra leaves as a precaution, because rotting leaves significantly reduce the life of your flowers 3. USING A very sharp knife or a pair of scissors held slightly open, scrape down the last 5cm (2in) of the stem to its base, using a dragging motion. Scraping the stem helps the flower take up the water it needs to stay alive for as long as possible.
