How to make your fresh-cut flowers last longer

Do you want your fresh-cut flowers to last longer than a couple of days? Well, the answer is in your medicine cabinet.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 2-3 non-coated aspirins
• Water

1. Take two non-coated aspirins and put them in your vase.

2. Add the desired amount of water into the vase and stir until the aspirins dissolve.

3. Cut the stems of your flowers at an angle and put them in the vase. This should prolong the life of your flowers for a good week. I've used this method for my daisies and they have lasted 1 1/2 weeks, no kidding! See tips below.

Tips & Warnings

• You can use coated aspirins, however, you will have to crush them first before putting them into the vase.
• Change the water every couple of days.
