Wilting Wisdom


It happens to me all the time, I buy the freshest bunch of hydrangeas I can find at Trader Joe's (they come in a set of three) and the next day at least one of them has wilted. I don't know why? I clip them immediately when I get home, place them in fresh cool water, but it always seems to be too much for at least one if not the whole bunch.  sooo frustrating!!  

But there is a solution! Clip (again) the stem of the wilted hydrangea, add fresh water, and place in the refrigerator for about 24 hours.  The cool dark space is this flower's happy place! {credit for this wisdom is due to my mom - the flower whisperer}
