How to let your flower bouquet live longer!

Follow these six simple steps to keep your blooms fresh longer. 
a. Use fresh, clean, warm water with flower preservative.
b. Loose leaves and foliage in the water cause bacteria, make sure your flowers are cleaned below the water line.
c. Cut the flower stems on a slant underwater, this allows the flowers to drink properly.
d. Cool is best, keep flowers away from heat, direct sun, and drafts. 
e. Re-cut the stems and change the water every other day to insure long life.
f.  Just as flowers enjoy the rain while they are growing, spraying them with a water misting bottle helps them to soak up some additional moisture directly through their flower heads, just don't over due it.
