So here is a little handy tip for those of us (OK, me) who do not embrace a green thumb on either hand. I try and try and haven't given up...yet. I was buying some hydrangeas to replace a few that literally died overnight. Did our elderly cat get to them? Apparently not as hydrangeas are a bit wimpy once cut and tend to take a dive head first after a day. So, a florist said you need to put the head of the flowers in really cold water for an hour. Then cut them under warm water and place them in a vase with fairly warm water. I did and it worked. Those flowers are still good to go in the kitchen and it's been a week. See for yourself. Hurrah!
