Violets in French history: When Napoleon died he was wearing a locket around his neck which contained violets which had been growing at Josephine's grave site.
Cut the stems:If you receive flowers in a box or tissue, remove all of the foliage that falls below the water line, then cut the stems with a sharp knife in a sink full of warm water. Be sure to cut the stems under the water and place them immediately into a vase of warm water mixed with the floral food provided by your florist. Medicinal uses of the rose: Long ago rose petals were used to control bleeding because they contain an astringent called tannin.
