Long time bbrooks member Green in San Diego, Ca shares some lovely hints to help your floral gift last longer.
Fresh Cut Flowers:
Three (3) easy tips will make your fresh flowers last and last.
- When you receive them, immediately cut each stem at an angle with pruning sheers or a knife.
- Remove extra leaves from the lower part of the stem, leaving some near the bloom so the nutrients in the stem feed the bloom.
- Refill or replace water daily or as needed.

Johnston is also known for surprise touches that complement her designs, such as bowls of candy and pink sea salts. “I’m big on the little things that make guests feel appreciated,” she says.

Mistletoe, or Phoradendrum Seritonum, has been a symbol of love and fertility for thousands of years, having once been used in Druid ceremonies and then evolving into “kissing balls” in 18th century England - under the mistletoe kissing ball, it was bad luck for a lady to refuse a gentleman’s kiss.* While we don’t advocate forcing your object of affection to kiss you under the threat of a years’ worth of bad luck, hanging mistletoe in doorways is a long-standing tradition. Tack sprigs of it outside your front door on New Years’ Eve to welcome the new year and guard against evil spirits like the Celts, or hang it above a newborn baby’s crib to prevent fairies from snatching him and putting a changeling in his place – new holiday mamas take note!
