Try something new to keep the flowers fresh / myLot

There are some common ways to keep the flowers fresh, such as adding salt, sugar, vinegar or aspirin. Yesterday when surfed online, I found there was something called flower preservative. Adding this will keep the flowers last for a longer time. Since it is not expensive, so I bought some to have a try. It seems that flourists will use it as keeping flowers fresh matters to their business. I will see whether it works better.

The flower preservatives sold by the florists is the only one that works. I tried all the other methods and NO ONE works.

That sounds interesting. I guess flower preservative works if the florists use it.

I noticed a little packet of it comes with a bouquet of flowers when a professional florist has delivered them.

This is very considerate. In fact it is better to have this service, after all a bouquet of flowers cost much

I think using aspirin will be even much more expensive than the flower preservative.
