Decorating/Design Tips and Trends

When cutting flowers, cut at a sharp angle. This increases the “opening” of the stem allowing water to be better absorbed. The flowers will not rest flush on the bottom of the container, which allows water to penetrate the stem. Once cut, place directly in water.
Be sure to stop by Eden Florist and pick up a bunch of cut flowers today!

I’ll bet that most people didn’t know that cutting flowers at a slant increased their vase life, due to water being able to get into the stem. Great tip to add, Heidi.
