Seasonal flowers are cheaper: Seasonal varieties are often less expensive when in great abundance. For example, roses are a super value in summer because it is their peak growing season.
Medicinal uses of the rose:Long ago rose petals were used to control bleeding because they contain an astringent called tannin. 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.
