Flower bouquets can last longer...

There is something so very beautiful about flowers that every woman ( perhaps men too!!) find very romantic. Who does not like a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers?

A gift of a bouquet of flowers brings smiles and lights up hearts!

These can light up any living space and add that much needed colour and freshness to any room. Its sad that the flowers, however beautiful they are wither away. But, if cared for well, you can make them last a little longer than its actual life span.

• Remove the bouquet from its wrapping, cut all stems diagonally. This way it will absorb more water. 
• Take a clean vase, crush an aspirin and place it on the bottom of the vase and fill the vase with water. 
• Place flowers in the vase - the flowers must be kept at a place with ample light, but it should not be kept under direct sunlight such that the flowers dry up.
• Changing water everyday at the same time will help the flowers last longer.
•  Every week cut the stems a little above the last cut, diagonally. This way you can ensure that the flowers absorb the water it needs.

As I said before flowers will wilt away eventually, but if taken care of, you can make it last longer.
