How to care cut flowers for a long time

1. Flowers need fresh water. Clean the vase and change water everyday.
2. When changing water, cut the stem little bit everyday.
There are lots of bacteria at the end of the stem. If you cut the stem, the flowers can suck up the water perfectly.
If possible, cut the stem under the water. Only water can into the flowers without air. It's better using sharp knife.
Scissors could squash the water vessels.
3. Take off all leaves below water for preventing bacteria.
4. Spray water to flowers everyday.
5. Take off all of the pollen in lilies. If not, flowers would finish very quickly.
6. Put the flowers at cool temperature as possible.
7. Put the flower food into the water.
  1 or 2 drop of bleach, 1 table spoon of sugar, (tiny little lemon juice)
8. If it is flower arrangement in green oasis, add water everyday.
  The flowers still need water everyday.
