Hi sweet friends!
There's nothing like a bouquet of roses to brighten up the winter months.
I purchased these lovely pink roses at the grocery store and added some pine cones for a pretty winter display.
What happens when your pretty roses wilt?
I completely forgot about the roses while putting the groceries away.
This is how I revive wilted roses:
Cut about an inch off all the stems on a slant
Add the commercial cut flower food packet to the water.
Change the water every one to two days.
Cut the stems just a tiny bit every time you change the water. This will help them survive longer. As your roses get shorter and shorter you will need a smaller vase. The heads on the roses will get bigger and the stems will be shorter, it will feel like you have a whole new bouquet.
As you continue to cut the stems you will eventually end up with just the heads. You can float the heads in water in a shallow bowl and continue to enjoy your roses.
