Yes please 2. Soda: Pour ¼ cup of soda in a vase full of fresh flowers. The sugar in soda is said to make your blooms last longer and even smelling sweeter too. 3. Vodka: Add a few drops (of any clear spirit) to your vase of flowers. These spirit’s ability to inhibit ethylene production, a ripening gas that helps plants mature, slows the wilting of the flowers. The more you know. 4. Coins: Add a copper penny to your fresh bouquet. The copper should act as an acidifier, fighting the bacteria growth in your arrangement. It may also help your flowers to open up quickly. Finally, a use for our pennies! Do you have any fun tips? Tell us! |
