Make your flower bouquet last that bit longer (25 days for the one below) by following the tips below. Every few days, remove any spent/unsightly flowers, cut all stems by about 2 inches, change the water (it will look more attractive even if this means losing that special packet of granules that you dissolved in the water to make your flowers last longer). If your vase is too high, scrunch up some see-through plastic (use the wrapping from your bouquet) and place inside the vase to raise the stems. If it is too wide, put some around the edge of the vase to hold the stems closer to each other.
