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

Chrysanthemum
Tough, cheerful and very long lasting. Change the water every few days and they’ll outlast almost anything.

Billy buttons
Billy buttons: perfect yellow spheres on long stems. They dry well, too.

Hypericum berries
Glossy berries on green stems. Not edible, but long lasting and full of texture.
