Marvin Carbonneau, University o'. Illinois Extension floriculturest, offers these suggestions on caring for cut flowers: --Don't plunge the flowers into ice-cold water. Extensive research has shown that cut flowers should be placed ir<^ water with a temperature of 80 to 100 degrees F. The flowers will begin to take up water Immediately and will not wilt. ---If the floVvers, especially ^roses, seem to open too fast with the warm water treatment, place them in warm water for only half an hour. Then transfer them to cool water. --Change the water daily and remove one-half to one inch of stem before replacing the flowers in fresh water. --If the florist supplies a special chemical to lengthen the, life of the flowers, be sure to use it. Tests show that suc-h chemicals increase flower life by several days.
