About the flowers
Anemone
Anemones open wide in warmth and close a little at night. They keep growing slightly in the vase.
Lasts 5 to 8 days
Hyacinth
Very strongly scented. Keep hyacinths in their own water for a few hours first; their sap shortens other flowers’ lives.
Lasts 5 to 8 days
Ranunculus
Layers of thin petals on hollow stems. Give them shallow water and they keep opening.
Lasts 7 to 10 days
Tulip
Tulips keep growing in the vase and bend towards the light. Cool water and a tall vase help them stand.
Lasts 5 to 7 days
