Savor winter-fresh flowers indoors by growing lenten rose. Cut flowers when they’re fully open. If you wait until you can see seedpods starting to form, blooms will last even longer. Float blooms in water or cut stems for vases. Prep flowers for the vase by recutting stems inside, plunging into boiling water for 30 seconds, then placing into cool water for 6 hours. Average vase life: 5 to 7 days.
