Here is what you'll need!
SUPPLIES
Sharp scissors
Penny from before 1982
Ice
Vodka
Lemon-lime soda
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove any leaves that will be underwater.
2. Cut stems 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the bottom. Cut at a sharp angle underwater.
3. Add a few drops of vodka to your vase water. Vodka helps slow wilting.
4. Add ¼ cup of lemon-lime soda to your vase. This will help flowers last longer.
5. Put a copper penny in your vase water. Copper acts as an acidifier to fight bacteria growth in the vase.
5. Store flowers in the fridge overnight. The low temperature helps slow aging.
6. Put ice in your vase water. Change out the water every other day.

i took a Rose from my best friends funeral today.. and this might sound crazy i guess :( idk but i wanna cherish it and keep it alive as long as i can. she loves roses.. 💔🙏🏾 Rest In Peace Viktoriya DeRosa
You could try putting in it glass or ice.
Ik it’s late, but maybe you could’ve put it in resin
i’m just now seeing this because i got roses today. but i did the same thing for my grandfathers funeral a couple of years ago
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thrives when given a shot of vodka
BAHAHAHAHA
This comment is underrated
Lol idk what u taking about (looks around)
It give me energy and the will to accomplish tasks 👍🍻.
🤣🤣🤣this is the comment I've been looking for.
Wow that's so useful for the flowers I won't receive tomorrow
No one forced u to watch it
Have you received any yet?
Feels
Haha! A hint helps.
This isn't just for valentines flowers, you can use them WHENEVER you get flowers. Sheesh. Btw, I did this with several of my flowers and it works!
Thanks for the info on working. My fresh flowers didn't come with the packet you add to the vase water. So I'm here finding a solution to make them last.
May I ask which one did you use? TIA
Which solution did you use???
Now I understand why Sandy put ice in the vase for her flowers in that spongebob episode
What I don’t get is every plant food packet I’ve seen says to use warm water..
I buy flowers every Tuesday fresh from my farmers market. They are a quarter of the price then the grocery store. I get a big giant bouquet for seven dollars.
Thanks for this tip! God bless you 😊💖

Alcohol is always the solution
mochie:3 dulce thanks 😊
Appreciate video content! Sorry for butting in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you researched - Lonophia Manish Perfection (should be on google have a look)? It is a good exclusive guide for improving your relationship and sex life minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my buddy got great success with it.

Straight to the point and helpful, thank you
I bought a bouquet of rose today 🌹 I buy it early 2 days because i cant buy it on the day i meet my gf because quite busy with work. Here me 2am watching this vid because i get scare watching my roses not seems fresh 🤣 hope it will keep fresh until i give it to her..
Roses gonna be my new drinking buddies
“I drink alone…me and my….WIFE’s!…roses.
A guy gave me flowers and i wanna keep them alive for as long as possible🥺
Thank you for such a amazing technique
Deff trying this. Flowers are such a beautiful gift especially roses but I hate how quickly they Wilt away
Right I bought some at the supermarket, I know it's just cheap scentless roses for €6 but it's so stupid that they are wilted a day after. I am going to see if the tricks in this video also help to recover the roses.
Thanks, I'll try it!😊
Lemon-lime soda works the best, I mix one part soda with two parts water. My guess is the acidity is just right and soda has fructose which plants love.
But these sodas r like? Sprite ?
*even roses drink vodka*
I'm not getting any flowers tomorrow why am I watching this
🌹🌹🌹
This is why my Gma used to water her Christmas tree with 7-UP. 🙂
It works ?
@@esther_8148 From what I can remember, yup.
@@stxrdropz thank you for info
@@esther_8148for Christmas trees:
- cut 4+ inches off and get in water ASAP
- when cutting, make 1-2 slices a 1/2-1 inch up the trunk(allowing more surface area to soak up water)
- ?I’ve heard to use warm water upon introduction?
- never allow water to get low
- get a Korean Fur, they hold their green needles longer
Wow!!
جميل جداً 👍🏻سأجرب هذه الطريقه 🥰
A shot of vodka for the roses a shot of tequila for me. 😁😁
Beautiful presentation am here to support
Do I need to do all of these steps or any one of them is enough?
*gasps* *runs to jar of old pennies I've been collecting for no reason*.. until now
Keep the flowers upright until they are in water. Less air gets in the stem.
Do you mean don't lay them down in the car on the way home and stuff?
How? Does air better make its way up the top half of the stem?
how often?
I can use a coin instead of vodka and lemon soda?
Does squirt soda work ?
I just got a flower gift , that's why I came her to checkout
I heard that the water needs to be a at warm temperatures is that true when changing the water ???
That’s what I’ve always heard, but considering flower stores keep them in refrigerators…I doubt warm water is good. It may help plants absorb those “food” packets? IDK.
So I just got flowers today, so I was watching this video to make them last longer, and I find it funny that while I was watching this video I was drinking a Mtn. Dew 😂😂
I wonder if regular teaspoon of sugar can be used for the roses. Can it?
Sugar is sugar.
@@helenarichard aren't there different types of sugar?
@@helenarichardfructose corn syrup is even worse for people than sugar, so they are different. To a plant, IDK.
@@stefanop.h.s.5172considering more people have sugar the fructose soda, there must be a reason they recommended fructose. Maybe the soda acidity?
I'm gonna try the ice
Ali Bunkles Did u ?
❤
Can you combine these tricks together? So put a shot of Vodka, some Lemon-Lime soda, and a Penny from before 1982? Or do these tricks interact negatively with each other?
How many times to put it in the refrigerator
Every time you go to sleep.
Those tips flash on screen so shortly it all a bit ineffective. You're not the only dope on CZcams.
👍
B.S. the shot of vodka is for you, not the flowers
What about soil?
I’ll have a vodka and 7up on the rocks. The flowers can have the 7up and I’ll take the vodka...
Kool for mom
It's work only for roses
Can somebody tell me if this js real or fake because im doing a work whith this vidio
What if u don't have pennies b4 1982, then what. Please give alternative answers 2 everything. Thanks
Ok, I've cut my roses on the angle, fresh water and added like 5ml of vodka,, let's see
