About the flowers
Rose
The classic cut flower. Recut stems at an angle and keep them in fresh water out of direct sun.

Lisianthus
Looks like a delicate rose but is far tougher. Buds further up the stem keep opening.
Lasts 10 to 14 days
Spray rose
Several small roses on each stem. Remove any blooms that fade to keep the rest going.
Lasts 7 to 10 days
Waxflower
Tiny waxy flowers on woody stems, with a fresh citrus scent when brushed.
