A method for making your own cut flower preservative: take a small amount of dish soap, dissolve it in warm water to make a 2%-4% concentration solution, and immerse the diagonally cut flower stems to a water depth of about 5cm; this can extend the life of the cut flowers by more than 2-3 times.

Using a 1:3000 aspirin water solution to make a simple preservative can also extend the flowering period by 7 to 10 days.

Salt water + sugar: after flowers are cut, their original sugar content cannot meet the needs of blooming, so adding a small amount of sugar to clean water can encourage buds to open and extend the freshness period of cut flowers.

The main function of adding salt to clean water: it prevents bacteria in the water from multiplying and, to a certain extent, through the difference in concentration between the salt water and the flower cell sap, maintains the flowers' water-absorbing capacity, thereby keeping the flowers fresh.
