Shari on Aug 02, 2015No matter what you do, some types of flowers just last longer than others but I completely agree with pinkshutterflower. I've tried the packaged preservatives that come with flowers, aspirin, sugar, a drop or two of bleach etc. and nothing seems to work as well as dumping the water every day and refilling the vase with fresh water.Helpful Reply
