When you first place the flowers into a vase, use warm water to begin with. Then trim the stems an inch (2.5cm) from the base, on the diagonal to provide the maximum surface area for uptake of water. Keep the flowers in a cool and well-ventilated area. Keep ripe fruit away from the flowers because the ethylene gas it releases can speed up the demise of your cut flowers.
